To Birmingham Castle Quotes

“What hath befallen the valiant young knight that was always ready
to joust and do battle, and that with the greatest courage?” Brandon said
in disgust to Strephon, as they stood watching Sir Robert and Lady
Narcissa at a distance. “All the man thinks upon is Narcissa–he maketh
no secret of it. If this idiocy is what overcometh men who fall in love,
be thou assured that I will never be among them.”
