2nd Baron Greville

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or greville:

    My lusts they do me leave,
    My fancies all be fled,
    And tract of time begins to weave
    Grey hairs upon my head.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    In night when colours all to black are cast,
    Distinction lost, or gone down with the light;
    The eye—a watch to inward senses placed,
    Not seeing, yet still having power of sight—
    Gives vain alarums to the inward sense
    —Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
