    LESSON 27 THE BROOK

    THE BROOK

    I COME from haunts of coot [1] and hern [2] ,

    I make a sudden sally,

    And sparkle out among the fern,

    To bicker [3] down a valley.

    By thirty hills I hurry down,

    Or slip between the ridges,

    By twenty thorps [4] , 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 [5] and trebles [6] ,

    I bubble into eddying [7] bays,

    I babble on the pebbles.

    With many a curve my banks I fret,

    By many a field and fallow [8] ,

    And many a fairy foreland [9] set

    With willow-weed [10] and mallow [11] .

    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 [12] .

    And here and there a foamy flake

    Upon me, as I travel

    With many a silvery waterbreak

    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 FLOW TO JOIN THE BRIMMING RIVER.

    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 [13] .

    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 LORD TENNYSON
