Sunken Road

Famous quotes containing the words sunken and/or road:

    Turn your eyes to the immoderate past,
    Turn to the inscrutable infantry rising
    Demons out of the earth—they will not last.
    Stonewall, Stonewall, and the sunken fields of hemp,
    Shiloh, Antietam, Malvern Hill, Bull Run.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    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)
