    “The feathers of the willow
    Are half of them grown yellow
    Above the swelling stream;
    And ragged are the bushes,
    And rusty now the rushes,
    And wild the clouded gleam.”

    To do the job too long he tarried:
    He should have had my hearty vote
    To cut his throat before he married.”
