Drum Surface

Famous quotes containing the words drum and/or surface:

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

And her proud ephemerals,
Fast to surface and outside,
Scan the profile of the sphere;
Knew they what that signified,
A new genesis were here.”
