SIR HUGH SEYMOUR WALPOLE
English novelist, critic and dramatist (1884 - 1941)

Over this country, when the giant Eagle flings the shadow of his
wing, the land is darkened. So compact is it that the wing
covers all its extent in one pause of the flight. The sea breaks
on the pale line of the shore; to the Eagle's proud glance waves
run in to the foot of the hills that are like rocks planted in
green water.
