Drum Sounds

Famous quotes containing the words drum and/or sounds:

“Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note,
As his corse to the rampart we hurried;”

Come down the stairs at night and stand perplexed
Behind the door and headboard of the bed,
Brushing their chalky skull with chalky fingers,
With sounds like the dry rattling of a shutter,”
