Famous quotes containing the word mound:

    A mound of refuse or the sweepings of a street,
    Old kettles, old bottles, and a broken can,
    Old iron, old bones, old rags, that raving slut
    Who keeps the till. Now that my ladder’s gone,
    I must lie down where all the ladders start,
    In the foul rag-and-bone shop of the heart.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “... It is not the stones,
    But the child’s mound ...”
    “Don’t, don’t, don’t,
    don’t,” she cried.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
