Fountain Township

Famous quotes containing the words fountain and/or township:

    It grazes the horizons, launched above

    A fountain at salute, a crown in view—

    The most interesting thing which I heard of, in this township of Hull, was an unfailing spring, whose locality was pointed out to me on the side of a distant hill, as I was panting along the shore, though I did not visit it. Perhaps, if I should go through Rome, it would be some spring on the Capitoline Hill I should remember the longest.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
