Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or english:

    God forgive me, I do still see that my nature is not to be quite conquered, but will esteem pleasure above all things; though, yet in the middle of it, it hath reluctancy after my business, which is neglected by my following my pleasure. However, music and women I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is.

    Student of our sweet English tongue,

    I was a poet, I was young.
