“Sweet Thames, run softly, till I end my song.
The river bears no empty bottles, sandwich papers,
Silk handkerchiefs, cardboard boxes, cigarette ends
Or other testimony of summer nights. The nymphs are departed.”

“In their eyes I have seen
the pin men of madness in marathon trim
race round the track of the stadium pupil.”
