Famous quotes containing the word campion:

    And every sea-god pays a gem,

    To deck great Neptune’s diadem.

    Only beauty purely loving
    Knows no discord,

    But still moves delight,
    Like clear springs renewed by flowing,
    Ever perfect, ever in them-
    Selves eternal.

    Kind are her answers,
    But her performance keeps no day;
    Breaks time, as dancers,
    From their own music when they stray.
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
