Famous quotes containing the words south, salt and/or lake:

    Returned this day, the south wind searches,
    And finds young pines and budding birches;
    But finds not the budding man.

    All the sea-gods are dead.
    You, Venus, come home
    To your salt maidenhead....

    Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world.
