Base Ball

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or ball:

“They must to keep their certainty accuse
All that are different of a base intent;
Pull down established honour; hawk for news
Whatever their loose phantasy invent
And murmur it with bated breath....”

Throw down the ball to me!’

‘Till up to me come ye.’”
