Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or pipe:
“Though I have locked my gate on them
I pity all the young,
I know what devil’s trade they learn
From those they live among,
Their drink, their pitch and toss by day,
Their robbery by night....”

And never a ploughman under the Sun.
Never a ploughman. Never a one.”
