Famous quotes containing the word deck:

    The almost universal bareness and smoothness of the landscape were as agreeable as novel, making it so much more like the deck of a vessel.

    I sang as one
    Who on a tilting deck sings
    To keep men’s courage up, though the wake hangs
    That shall cut off their sun.

    And every sea-god pays a gem,
    Yearly out of his watery cell,
    To deck great Neptune’s diadem.
