excerpt from Green River
by William Cullen Bryant


When breezes are soft and skies are fair,
I steal an hour from study and care,
And hie me away to the woodland scene,
Where wanders the stream with waters of green,
5 As if the bright fringe of herbs on its brink
Had given their stain to the wave they drink;
And they, whose meadows it murmurs through,
Have named the stream from its own fair hue.
A. I steal an hour from study and care,
B. Where wanders the stream with waters of green,
C. Had given their stain to the wave they drink;
D. Have named the stream from its own fair hue.
