“Uncle Matthew’s four years in France and Italy between 1914 and 1918 had given him no great opinion of foreigners. “Frogs,” he would say, “are slightly better than Huns or Wops, but abroad is unutterably bloody and foreigners are fiends.””
—Nancy Mitford (1904–1973)
“Sumer is icumen in,
Lhude sing cuccu;”
—Unknown. Summer Is Icumen In (l. 1–2)
