Front Rounded Vowels

Famous quotes containing the words front, rounded and/or vowels:

    A man’s destination is his own village,
    His own cooking fire, and his wife’s cooking;
    To sit in front of his own door at sunset
    And see his grandson, and his neighbour’s grandson
    Playing in the dust together.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The rounded world is fair to see,
    Nine times folded in mystery.

    These equal syllables alone require,
    Though oft the ear the open vowels tire;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
