Famous quotes by nicholas breton:

    Thus much for thy assurance know; a hollow friend is but a hellish foe.
    Nicholas Breton (c. 1545–1626)

    While he hears in every spring
    How the birds do chirp and sing:
    Or before the hounds in cry
    See the hare go stealing by:
    Or along the shallow brook,
    Angling with a baited hook,
    See the fishes leap and play
    In a blessed sunny day:
    Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)
