rill

Chief and most musical among these signs were the almost forgotten sounds of dropping water, and tinkling rills.

John Willie, eating his supper almost savagely, had some ado to reply politely to June's rills of pretty speech.

In rainy weather the tiny rills which descend the fells precipitate themselves into these black gulfs and disappear.

Fair Sabrina, for this aid I pray that all the pretty rills will never cease to flow into your broad river.
