Agricultural Winter Fair

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or fair:

    Whenas the Chill Sirocco blowes,
    And Winter tells a heavy tale;
    When Pyes and Dawes and Rookes and Crows,
    Sit cursing of the frosts and snowes;
    Then give me Ale.
    Thomas Bonham (d. 1629?)

    O, why should Love, like men in drinking-songs,
    Spice his fair banquet with the dust of death?
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
