The slender rush in idle motion bows
With meek obedience to the floods below
Were jostling reeds & willows dangling boughs
Impede their gurgling progress as they flow
On the thorn bush that overhangs the streams
The morehen slumbers in her nest of sedge
While the shrill dormouse in its summer dreams
Chitters unceasing from the waters edge
