Windsor quotes

The healthiest situation in England, on Easthampstead Plain. Free run of Windsor Forest. TheTimes every morning. A double-barrelled gun and pointers, and leave to shoot three Wellington College boys a week (not more) in case black game was scarce.

- Charles Kingsley
   The reward for criminal lunacy. The Water Babies, ch.4.

'Ave you 'eard o'the Widow at Windsor With a hairy gold crown on 'er 'ead? She 'as ships on the foamshe 'as millions at 'ome, An'she pays us poor beggars in red.

- (Joseph) Rudyard Kipling
  'The Widow at  Windsor'.

So cruel prison how could betide, alas, As proud Windsor? Where I in lust and joy With a king's son my childish years did pass In greater feast than Priam's sons of Troy.

- Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey
  'So cruel prison'.
