Sir Thomas Brisbane

Famous quotes containing the words sir thomas, sir and/or thomas:

    Blame but thyself that hast misdone,
    And well deserved to have blame;
    Change thou thy way so evil begun,

    But if till then my fingers play
    By thy desert their wonted way,
    Blame not my lute.

    Such is our pride, our folly, or our fate,
    That few but such as cannot write, translate.

    I fellowed sleep who kissed me in the brain,
    Let fall the tear of time; the sleeper’s eye,
    Shifting to light, turned on me like a moon.
