THESE springs were maidens once that loved, But, lost to that they most approved, My story tells, by Love they were Turned to these springs which we see here; The pretty whimpering that they make, When of the banks their leave they take, Tells ye but this, they are the same, In nothing changed but in their name. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...GOB-NY-USHTEY (WATER'S MOUTH) by THOMAS EDWARD BROWN THE OLD SPRING by MADISON JULIUS CAWEIN LOST VALLEY by GLENN WARD DRESBACH THE POEMS OF COLD MOUNTAIN: 82 by HAN SHAN THE POEMS OF PICKUP: 49 by HAN SHAN OUR LADY'S WELL by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS FOUNTAIN by VYACHESLAV IVANOVICH IVANOV SONNET: 1.
