Quotes about surprisd (2 Quotes)

But the cheerful Spring came kindly on And show'rs began to fall John Barleycorn got up again And sore surpris'd them all.

But if my frosty signs and chaps of age,
Grave witnesses of true experience,
Cannot induce you to attend my words,

When with his solemn tongue he did discourse
To love-sick Dido's sad attending ear
The story of that baleful burning night,
When subtle Greeks surpris'd King Priam's Troy.
