THE CANAL-BOAT PILOT, RETIRED, by HARRINGTON GREEN First Line: Lazily floating between the green hills Last Line: Then under the bridges of brunswick town! Subject(s): Boats; Delaware (river) | ||||||||
Lazily floating between the green hills, Wheat-field and meadows, -- oh, might I be Back in those days on the old Raritan, Up from the Delaware through to the sea! Dreaming away the long slow hours From earliest dawn till the sun goes down, Gliding by Princeton and glimpsing the towers, Then under the bridges of Brunswick town! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE DELAWARE WATER-GAP by ELIZABETH LUMMIS FRIES ELLETT THE DELAWARE by THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH THE BALLAD OF DANIEL BRAY by JOSEPH FULFORD FOLSOM WASHINGTON BY THE DELAWARE by CINCINNATUS HEINE MILLER TO THE HONOURABLE W.
