Quotes
And still I like to fancy that, Somewhere beyond the Styx’s bound,Sir Guy’s tall phantom stoops to pat His little phantom hound!
"Hold", st. 7; in Punch, vol. 137 (1 September 1909) p. 152
The wind's in the east, But there's green on the larch,And a fairy-tale beast On the uplands' wide archThat gallops and gallops, light pacing, At chasingOf Magic, clean Magic of March.
Reported in Brian Vesey-Fitzgerald, It's My Delight (London: Eyre & Spottiswoode, 1947) ch. 1, epigraph
