Hi -
The patron needs an exact source for this quotation, and I haven't been
able to locate it. One internet source from a British parliamentary
member quotes it as coming from Lord Randolph Churchill. But I don't
trust it.
It quote begins thus...
"The noise and confusion of election crowds; the cantle phrases and
formula; the borrowings of rival caucuses, fell with weariness and even
persons ...of exquisite sensibility."
It ends with...
"Better for the clamour of popular disputation with all of its most
blatant accessories hammering from month-to-month and year-to-year the
labored progress of the common people in a work-a-day world, than the
poetic tragedies and violence of the chivalric ages."
Thank you in advance
