Mount Pleasant Road

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

    If you would feel the full force of a tempest, take up your residence on the top of Mount Washington, or at the Highland Light, in Truro.

    What slender youth, bedewed with liquid odours
    Courts thee on roses in some pleasant cave,
    Pyrrha? For whom bind’st thou
    In wreaths thy golden hair,
    Plain in thy neatness?
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)

    The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
    And the highwayman came riding—
    Riding—riding—
    The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.
    Alfred Noyes (1880–1958)
