Son Ascanius

Famous quotes containing the words son and/or ascanius:

    I’d horsewhip you if I had a horse.

    High on a throne of his own labors reared.
    At his right hand our young Ascanius sate,
    Rome’s other hope and pillar of the state.
    His brows thick fogs, instead of glories, grace,
    And lambent dullness played around his face.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)
