From Washington Post

His brother Niger too, and all the floods In which the full-form'd maids of Afric lave Their jetty limbs; and all that from the tract Of woody mountains stretch'd through gorgeous Ind Fall on Cormandel's coast, or Malabar; From Menam's orient stream, that nightly shines With insect lamps, to where aurora sheds On Indus' smiling banks the rosy shower; All, at this bounteous season, ope their urns, And pour untoiling harvest o'er the land.

From Project Gutenberg

A Cochin China rooster, lank and thin, Or something indigestible from Tonquin, For a big, sharp-set Wolf, are snacks, not meals; So down the sparkling river Lupus steals, Quite uninvited, but intent on forage, Fronting the fleecy flocks with wondrous courage; For whether in the Southdowns, or Siam, By the near Medway, or the far Menam, Your Wolf is most courageous—with your Lamb!

From Project Gutenberg
