Famous quotes containing the words flight and/or sergeant:

    it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
    The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
    When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

    And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
    their goods;
    And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
    armed men.
    Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)

    A sergeant of the lawe, war and wys,
    That often hadde been at the Parvys,
    Ther was also, ful riche of excellence.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
