Town Clerk

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or clerk:

“Keen instruments, strung to a vast precision
Bind town to town and dream to ticking dream.”

“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)
