T.H. White Quotes
The Plain Of Bedegraine Was A Forest Of Pavilions. They Looked Like Old-fashioned Bathing Tents, And Were Every Colour Of The Rainbow ... There Were Heraldic Devices Worked Or Stamped On The Sides ... Then There Were Pennons Floating From The Tops Of The Tents, And Sheaves Of Spears Leaning Against Them. The More Sporting Barons Had Shields Or Huge Copper Basins Outside Their Front Doors, And All You Had To Do Was To Give A Thump On One Of These With The Butt-end Of Your Spear, For The Baron To Come Out Like An Angry Bee And Have A Fight With You, Almost Before The Resounding Boom Had Died Away. Sir Dinadain, Who Was A Cheerful Man, Had Hung A Chamber-pot Outside His.
