Famous quotes containing the word season:
“When I was bound apprentice, in famous Lincolnshire,
Full well I served my master for more than seven year,
Till I took up poaching, as you shall quickly hear:
Oh, tis my delight on a shining night, in the season of the year.”
—Unknown. The Lincolnshire Poacher (l. 14)
