Famous quotes containing the words welsh and/or lords:
“When one has been threatened with a great injustice, one accepts a smaller as a favour.”

“The lords of life, the lords of life,—
I saw them pass
In their own guise,
Like and unlike,
Portly and grim,—
Use and surprise,
Surface and dream,
Succession swift, and spectral wrong,
Temperament without a tongue,
And the inventor of the game
Omnipresent without name;—”
