Famous quotes containing the word drayton:
“Show me no more those snowy breasts
With azure riverets branched
Where, whilst mine eye with plenty feasts
Yet is my thirst not staunched;
O Tantalus, thy pains ne’er tell,
By me thou are prevented;
‘Tis nothing to be plagued in Hell,
But thus in Heaven tormented.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
