Famous quotes containing the words rye and/or house:

    “When as the rye reach to the chin,
    And chopcherry, chopcherry ripe within,

    And school-boys playing in the stream;”
    —George Peele (1559–1596)

    “This house was but a slight departure from the hollow tree, which the bear still inhabits,—being a hollow made with trees piled up, with a coating of bark like its original.”
