Famous quotes containing the words isle and/or wight:
“She carries in the dishes,
And lays them in a row.
To an isle in the water
With her would I go.”

“Then think I thus: sith such repair,
So long time war of valiant men,
Was all to win a lady fair,
Shall I not learn to suffer then,
And think my life well spent to be,
Serving a worthier wight than she?”
—Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)
