Carew

Famous quotes containing the word carew:

    Here lies a King that ruled as he thought fit
    The universal monarchy of wit;
    Here lies two flamens, and both those the best,
    Apollo’s first, at last the true God’s priest.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    Yet, Saxham, thou within thy gate
    Art of thyself so delicate,
    So full of native sweets that bless
    Thy roof with inward happiness,
    As neither from nor to thy store
    Winter takes aught, or spring adds more.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
