Kingdom Ruled

Famous quotes containing the words kingdom and/or ruled:

    A box of teak, a box of sandalwood,
    A brass-ringed spyglass in a case,
    A coin, leaf-thin with many polishings,
    Last kingdom of a gold forgotten face,
    These lie about the room....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    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)
