    the sea-blue coast of home.”

    “Here far from the city we make our roadside stand
    And ask for some city money to feel in hand
    To try if it will not make our being expand,
    And give us the life of the moving-pictures’ promise
    That the party in power is said to be keeping from us.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    And the highwayman came riding—
    Riding—riding—
    The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.”
    —Alfred Noyes (1880–1958)
