    The last sunbeam
    Lightly falls from the finished Sabbath,
    On the pavement here, and there beyond it is looking,
    Down a new-made double grave,

    I counted two and seventy stenches,
    All well defined and several stinks!
    Ye Nymphs that reign o’er sewers and sinks,
    The river Rhine, it is well known,
    Doth wash your city of Cologne;
    But tell me, Nymphs! what power divine
    Shall henceforth wash the river Rhine?
