Close Hauled

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or hauled:

    The body was still resting on its legs, leaning against the end of the side of the bed, while one of the arms was close clasped round the bed-post. The mouth was rigidly closed, but the eyes were open as though staring at him.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    Buzzards float upon the sky
    Shrilling a metaphysic cry,
    Machines hum, midgets play,
    Another corpse is hauled away
    Hauled away
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
