“What was he doing, the great god Pan,
Down in the reeds by the river?
Spreading ruin and scattering ban,
Splashing and paddling with hoofs of a goat,
And breaking the golden lilies afloat
With the dragon-fly on the river.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (18061861)
“It was a pretty game, played on the smooth surface of the pond, a man against a loon.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
