Famous quotes containing the word campion:

    Shall I come, sweet Love, to thee,
    When the ev’ning beams are set?

    Now you courtly dames and knights,
    That study only strange delights,
    Though you scorn the home-spun gray
    And revel in your rich array;
    Though your tongues dissemble deep
    And can your heads from danger keep:
    Yet for all your pomp and train,
    Securer lives the silly swain.
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Love loves no delay;
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
