Have you heard of this saying?

i liked plummers books when they first cameout but like a lot of things in his books it was stuff that was written by someone else many many years before he was even thought of .

[cocker 2,654]

that poem was out before plummer was an embryo, to be exact it was wrote in the boke of saint albans 1480,

 

Correct.

 

An even earlier one gives the best description of a course iv ever heard.

I think it was about 12th century.

 

As when thy impatient greyhound slipped from afar

Bounds o'er the glade to course the fearful hare

 

She in her speed does all her safety lie

He with double speed pursues his prey

 

 

Over runs her at the sitting turn

Yet licks his chaps in vain

But blows upon the flux

 

She seeks the shelter that the neighbouring covert gives

 

 

 

 

 

wheres this one from mate ?thanks

And gaining it she doubts if yet she lives.

Who'd have put lurcher lads and lasses with 15th century poetry? We're quite a cultured lot really aren't we eh? LOL!
