Famous quotes containing the words cricket and/or boards:
“All cries are thin and terse;
The field has droned the summer’s final mass;
A cricket like a dwindled hearse
Crawls from the dry grass.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
“Water, water, everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, everywhere
Nor any drop to drink.”
