Town Clerk

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or clerk:

“The town is silent. The night boils with eleven stars.
Oh starry starry night! This is how
I want to die.”

“Your faith an’ trouth yese never get
Nor our trew Love shall never twain
Till ye come within my bower
And kiss me both cheek and chin.

My mouth it is full cold, Margret,
It has the smell now of the ground;
An’ if I kiss thy com’ly mouth
Thy life days will not be long.”
—Unknown. Clerk Saunders (l. 109–116)
