Pitch Pipes

Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or pipes:

    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....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    They were pipes of pagan mirth,
    And the world had found new terms of worth.
    He laid him down on the sunburned earth
    And raveled a flower and looked away.
    Play? Play? What should he play?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
