Excerpt from The Thames: A Poem

It was by chance my wandering footsteps came Alongst the fount from which thy waters spring, And, all unconscious, then I laid the frame Of thy life's story, which I now unworthy sing.

N o rugged aspect frowns upon thy birth, In gentle slopes the neighbouring hillocks rise Sweet'scented flowers conceal parturient earth, And o'er her coy retreat the gentlest plumage flies.
