Famous quotes containing the words abandoned and/or canals:

    “Old and abandoned by each venal friend,
    Here H[olland] took the pious resolution
    To smuggle some few years and strive to mend
    A broken character and constitution.”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    “The Nymph exulting fills with shouts the sky;
    The walls, the woods, and long canals reply.”
