Pitched Sound

Famous quotes containing the words pitched and/or sound:

“Love, why have you sought the horde
of spearsmen, why the tent
Achilles pitched beside the river-ford?”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“O love, my love! if I no more should see
Thyself, nor on the earth the shadow of thee,
Nor image of thine eyes in any spring,—
How then should sound upon Life’s darkening slope
The ground-whirl of the perished leaves of Hope,
The wind of Death’s imperishable wing?”
—Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)
