Famous quotes containing the words edward and/or baron:

    The night was thick and hazy
    When the “Piccadilly Daisy”
    Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;
    And I think the water downed ‘em;
    For they never, never found ‘em,
    And I know they didn’t come ashore with me.
    —Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    I loathe that I did love,
    In youth that I thought sweet;
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)
