I am a Worcestershire man myself,--born near Pershore.
Sign of the Four by Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan View in context
I have not had a better supper ordered this half-year than they ordered last night; and so easy and good-humoured were they, that they found no fault with my Worcestershire perry, which I sold them for champagne; and to be sure it is as well tasted and as wholesome as the best champagne in the kingdom, otherwise I would scorn to give it 'em; and they drank me two bottles.
The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling by Fielding, Henry View in context
] Laghamon was a humble parish priest in Worcestershire, and his thirty-two thousand half-lines, in which he imperfectly follows the Anglo-Saxon alliterative meter, are rather crude; though they are by no means dull, rather are often strong with the old-time Anglo-Saxon fighting spirit.
A History of English Literature by Fletcher, Robert Huntington View in context
