Famous quotes containing the words born and/or swiss:
“And born hym weel, as of so litel space,
In hope to stonden in his lady grace.
Embrouded was he, as it were a meede
Al ful of fresshe floures, whyte and reede.
Syngynge he was or floytynge al the day.
He was as fressh as in the monthe of May.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
