Sir Henry Newbolt

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or newbolt:

    When Sir Joshua Reynolds died
    All Nature was degraded;
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    He saw the dark wainscot and timbered roof,
    The long tables, and the faces merry and keen;
    The College Eight and their trainer dining aloof,
    The Dons on the dais serene.
    —Sir Henry Newbolt (1862–1938)
