Play by me; bathe in me; mother and child。



Charles Kingsley '1819…1875'





THE BROOK'S SONG

From 〃The Brook〃



I come from haunts of coot and hern;

I make a sudden sally;

And sparkle out among the fern;

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。



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。



I chatter over stony ways;

In little sharps and trebles;

I bubble into eddying bays;

I babble on the pebbles。



With many a curve my banks I fret

By many a field and fallow;

And many a fairy foreland set

With willow…weed and mallow。



I chatter; chatter; as I flow

To join the brimming river;

For men may come and men may go;

But I go on for ever。



I wind about; and in and out;

With here a blossom sailing;

And here and there a lusty trout;

And here and there a grayling;



And here and there a foamy flake

Upon me; as I travel

With many a silvery water…break 

Above the golden gravel;



And draw them all along; and flow

To join the brimming river;

For men may come and men may go;

But I go on for ever。



I steal by lawns and grassy plots;

I slide by hazel covers;

I move the sweet forget…me…nots

That grow for happy lovers。



I slip; I slide; I gloom; I glance;

Among my skimming swallows;

I make the netted sunbeam dance

Against my sandy shallows。



I murmur under moon and stars

In brambly wildernesses;

I linger by my shingly bars;

I loiter round my cresses;



And out again I curve and flow

To join the brimming river;

For men may come and men may go;

But I go on for ever。



Alfred Tennyson '1809…1892'





ARETHUSA



Arethusa arose

From her couch of snows

In the Acroceraunian mountains; …

From cloud and from crag;

With many a jag;

Shepherding her bright fountains。

She leapt down the rocks

With her rainbow locks

Streaming among the streams;

Her steps paved with green

The downward ravine

Which slopes to the western gleams:

And gliding and springing;

She went; ever singing;

In murmurs as soft as sleep;

The Earth seemed to love her;

And Heaven smiled above her;

As she lingered towards the deep。



Then Alpheus bold;

On his glacier cold;

With his trident the mountains strook;

And opened a chasm

In the rocks; … with the spasm

All Erymanthus shook。

And the black south wind

It unsealed behind

The urns of the silent snow;

And earthquake and thunder

Did rend in sunder

The bars of the springs below:

And the beard and the hair

Of the River…god were

Seen through the torrent's sweep;

As he followed the light

Of the fleet nymph's flight

To the brink of the Dorian deep。



〃Oh; save me!  Oh; guide me!

And bid the deep hide me!

For he grasps me now by the hair!〃

The loud Ocean heard;

To its blue depth stirred;

And divided at her prayer;

And under the water

The Earth's white daughter

Fled like a sunny beam;

Behind her descended;

Her billows; unblended

With the brackish Dorian stream。

Like a gloomy stain

On the emerald main;

Alpheus rushed behind; …

As an eagle pursuing

A dove to its ruin

Down the streams of the cloudy wind。



Under the bowers

Where the Ocean Powers

Sit on their pearled thrones;

Through the coral woods

Of the weltering floods;

Over heaps of unvalued stones;

Through the dim beams

Which amid the streams

Weave a network of colored light;

And under the caves

Where the shadowy waves

Are as green as the forest's night: …

Outspeeding the shark;

And the swordfish dark; …

Under the Ocean's foam;

And up through the rifts

Of the mountain clifts;

They passed to their Dorian home。



And now from their fountains

In Enna's mountains;

Down one vale where the morning basks;

Like friends once parted

Grown single…hearted;

They ply their watery tasks。

At sunrise they leap

From their cradles steep

In the cave of the shelving hill;

At noontide they flow

Through the woods below

And the meadows of asphodel;

And at night they sleep

In the rocking deep

Beneath the Ortygian shore; …

Like spirits that lie

In the azure sky。

When they love but live no more。



Percy Bysshe Shelley '1792…1822'





THE CATARACT OF LODORE



〃How does the water

Come down at Lodore?〃

My little boy asked me

Thus; once on a time;

And moreover he tasked me

To tell him in rhyme。

Anon; at the word;

There first came one daughter;

And then came another;

To second and third

The request of their brother;

And to hear how the water

Comes down at Lodore;

With its rush and its roar;

As many a time

They had seen it before。

So I told them in rhyme;

For of rhymes I had store;

And 'twas in my vocation

For their recreation

That so I should sing;

Because I was Laureate

To them and the King。



From its sources which well

In the tarn on the fell;

From its fountains

In the mountains;

Its rills and its gills;

Through moss and through brake;

It runs and it creeps

For a while; till it sleeps

In its own little lake。

And thence at departing;

Awakening and starting;

It runs through the reeds;

And away it proceeds;

Through meadow and glade;

In sun and in shade;

And through the wood…shelter;

Among crags in its flurry;

Helter…skelter;

Hurry…skurry。

Here it comes sparkling;

And there it lies darkling;

Now smoking and frothing

Its tumult and wrath in;

Till; in this rapid race

On which it is bent;

It reaches the place

Of its steep descent。



The cataract strong

Then plunges along;

Striking and raging


As if a war raging

Its caverns and rocks among;

Rising and leaping;

Sinking and creeping;

Swelling and sweeping;

Showering and springing;

Flying and flinging;

Writhing and ringing;

Eddying and whisking;

Spouting and frisking;

Turning and twisting;

Around and around

With endless rebound:

Smiting and fighting;

A sight to delight in;

Confounding; astounding;

Dizzying and deafening the ear with its sound。



Collecting; projecting;

Receding and speeding;

And shocking and rocking;

And darting and parting;

And threading and spreading;

And whizzing and hissing;

And dripping and skipping;

And hitting and splitting;

And shining and twining;

And rattling and battling;

And shaking and quaking;

And pouring and roaring;

And waving and raving;

And tossing and crossing;

And flowing and going;

And running and stunning;

And foaming and roaming;

And dinning and spinning;

And dropping and hopping;

And working and jerking;

And guggling and struggling;

And heaving and cleaving;

And moaning and groaning;



And glittering and frittering;

And gathering and feathering;

And whitening and brightening;

And quivering and shivering;

And hurrying and skurrying;

And thundering and floundering;



Dividing and gliding and sliding;

And falling and brawling and sprawling;

And driving and riving and striving;

And sprinkling and twinkling and wrinkling;

And sounding and bounding and rounding;

And bubbling and troubling and doubling;

And grumbling and rumbling and tumbling;

And clattering and battering and shattering;



Retreating and beating and meeting and sheeting;

Delaying and straying and playing and spraying;

Advancing and prancing and glancing and dancing;

Recoiling; turmoiling and toiling and boiling;

And gleaming and streaming and steaming and beaming;

And rushing and flushing and brushing and gushing;

And flapping and rapping and clapping and slapping;

And curling and whirling and purling and twirling;

And thumping and plumping and bumping and jumping;

And dashing and flashing and splashing and clashing;

And so never ending; but always descending;

Sounds and motions for ever and ever are blending

All at once and all o'er; with a mighty uproar; …

And this way the water comes down at Lodore。



Robert Southey '1774…1843'





SONG OF THE CHATTAHOOCHEE



Out of the hills of Habersham;

Down the valleys of Hall;

I hurry amain to reach the plain;

Run the rapid and leap the fall;

Split at the rock and together again;

Accept my bed; or narrow or wide;

And flee from folly on every side

With a lover's pain to attain the plain

Far from the hills of Habersham;

Far from the valleys of Hall。



All down the hills of Habersham;

All through the valleys of Hall;

The rushes cried Abide; abide;

The wilful waterweeds held me thrall;

The laying laurel turned my tide;

The ferns and the fondling grass said Stay;

The dewberry dipped for to work delay;

And the little reeds sighed Abide; abide;

Here in the hills of Hahersham;

Here in the valleys of Hall。



High o'er the hills of Habersham;

Veiling the valleys of Hall;

The hickory told me manifold

Fair tales of shade; the poplar tall

Wrought me her shadowy self to hold;

The chestnut; the oak; the walnut; the pine;

Overleaning; with flickering meaning and sign;

Said; Pass not; so cold; these manifold

Deep shades of the hills of Habersham;

These glades in the valleys of Hall。



And oft in the hills of Habersham;

And oft in the valleys of Hall;

The white quartz shone; and the smooth brook…stone

Did bar me of passage with friendly brawl;

And many a luminous jewel lone

… Crystals clear or a…cloud with mist;

Ruby; garnet and amethyst …

Made lures with the lights of streaming stone

In the clefts of the hills of Habersham;

In the beds of the valleys of Hall。



But oh; not the hills of Habersham;

And oh; not the valleys of Hall

Avail: I am fain for to water the plain。

Downward the voices of Duty call …

Downward; to toil and be mixed with the main。

The dry fields burn; and the
