Mount Pleasant Road

Famous quotes containing the words mount, pleasant and/or road:

    “I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “I would in rich and golden coloured raine,
    With tempting showers in pleasant sort discend,”
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    “Does the road wind uphill all the way?
    Yes, to the very end.
    Will the day’s journey take the whole long day?
    From morn to night, my friend.

    But is there for the night a resting-place?
    A roof for when the slow, dark hours begin,”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
