Famous quotes containing the words strikes and/or king:
“Pans Syrinx was a girl indeed,
Though now shes turned into a reed;
From that dear reed Pans pipe does come,
A pipe that strikes Apollo dumb;
Nor flute, nor lute, nor gittern can
So chant it, as the pipe of Pan;”
—John Lyly (15531606)
“Dear Brand: You love laughing; there is a king dead; can you help coming to town?”
