So sink we in the pool Oblivion By our own weight. To stout-heart ERSKINSON [7] I do bequeath this trout and his estate. The round-eyed beaver unto him, also I give, shy vassals of the river, cunning folk, Engineers who dam the river flow, Hew trees and dig canals. If they but spoke, They would be wise as us; could shoot and vote. The grey-haired Moon who, since this round World's birth, Has climbed Green Ridge, sees us and sees the beaver As coldly she looks down on our dark earth. I wonder wh...ich she loves, and which the River. I give him mornings on the river-bank, Song of the river when the new sun shines On the ripples, and the grass with dew is dank Also the solemn discourse of the pines, At evening when the melting shadows fall And Peace sits on the bank with folded wings; [8] The birds all chirruping a good-night call, And deep in dusk a yellow warbler sings. The river-deeps, grey as his honest eyes, I give to him. They run for many a mile, And none can know, or guess, what in them lies; And silver shallows, sweet as his grave smile; And as appurtenant to this, my gift, I give the salmon-flies that to the breeze Of June their gauzy sails uplift; The caddis and the gnats, all such as these; And the overhanging banks so lush and brave; But not the evening primrose, or candles white Of the big-leaf.
