Famous quotes containing the words rode and/or bay:
“(The black stream, catching on a sunken rock,
Flung backward on itself in one white wave,
And the white water rode the black forever.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Baltimore lay very near the immense protein factory of Chesapeake Bay, and out of the bay it ate divinely. I well recall the time when prime hard crabs of the channel species, blue in color, at least eight inches in length along the shell, and with snow-white meat almost as firm as soap, were hawked in Hollins Street of Summer mornings at ten cents a dozen.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
