“I come from haunts of coot and hern, I make a sudden sally, And sparkle out among the fern, 25 To bicker down a valley. By thirty hills I hurry down, Or slip between the ridges, By twenty thorps, a little town, And half a hundred bridges. 30 Till last by Philip's farm I flow To join the brimming river, For men may come and men may go, But I go on for ever.””
— William Wordsworth
