Famous quotes containing the words mallet and/or strikes:

“But the ball is lost and the mallet slipped long since from the hands
Under the running tap that are not the hands of a child.”

“Pan’s Syrinx was a girl indeed,
Though now she’s turned into a reed;
From that dear reed Pan’s pipe does come,
A pipe that strikes Apollo dumb;
Nor flute, nor lute, nor gittern can
So chant it, as the pipe of Pan;”
—John Lyly (1553–1606)
