Ransom Note

Famous quotes containing the words ransom and/or note:

    The horn, the hounds, the lank mares coursing by
    Under quaint archetypes of chivalry;
    And the fox, lovely ritualist, in flight
    Offering his unearthly ghost to quarry;
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    The finch, the sparrow, and the lark,
    The plainsong cuckoo grey,
    Whose note full many a man doth mark
    And dares not answer nay.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
