TO A MOUNTAIN BROOK, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Beauty and health do companion thee, friend
Last Line: Born of an impulse divine.
Subject(s): Beauty; Brooks; Mountains; Streams; Creeks; Hills; Downs (great Britain)


BEAUTY and health do companion thee, friend,
Boons evanescent and rare;
Daytime and night-tide in loveliness bend
Over thy flight that is fair.

Rarer boon still: It is given to thee --
Far from the fret that is mine --
To hark thine own music, and know it to be
Born of an impulse divine.
