Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:

    “On Linden, when the sun was low,
    All bloodless lay the untrodden snow,
    And dark as winter was the flow
    Of Iser, rolling rapidly.”
    —Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)

    “I’d rather I were dead and gone,
    And my body laid in grave,
    Ere a rusty stock o coal-black smith
    My maidenhead should have.”
    —Unknown. The Twa Magicians (l. 17–20)
