Oliver Baldwin

Famous quotes containing the words oliver and/or baldwin:

    I have seen in this revolution a circular motion of the sovereign power through two usurpers, father and son, to the late King to this his son. For ... it moved from King Charles I to the Long Parliament; from thence to the Rump; from the Rump to Oliver Cromwell; and then back again from Richard Cromwell to the Rump; then to the Long Parliament; and thence to King Charles, where long may it remain.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    My Love in me and I in him,
    Conjoined by love, will till abide
    Among the faithful lilies
    Till day do break, and truth do dim
    All shadows dark and cause them slide,
    According as his will is.
    —William Baldwin (fl. 1547–1549)
