Famous quotes by michael drayton:

    Fair stood the wind for France,
    When we our sails advance,
    Nor now to prove our chance
    Longer will tarry;
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    How many paltry, foolish, painted things
    That now in coaches trouble every street
    Shall be forgotten, whom no poet sings,
    Ere they be well wrapped in their winding-sheet!
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
