Famous quotes containing the word pipe:
“On a cloud I saw a child,
And he laughing said to me,
Pipe a song about a Lamb;
So I piped with merry chear.
Piper pipe that song again
So I piped, he wept to hear.
Drop thy pipe thy happy pipe
Sing thy songs of happy chear;
So I sung the same again
While he wept with joy to hear.”

Your friends to death before their time
Moping melancholy mad:
Come, pipe a tune to dance to, lad.”

Whose blood and judgment are so well commingled
That they are not a pipe for Fortunes finger
To sound what stop she please.”
