    “Thou stately stream that with the swelling tide
    ‘Gainst London walls incessantly dost beat,
    Thou Thames, I say, where barge and boat doth ride,
    And snow-white swans do fish for needful meat:”

    Like a body wholly body, fluttering
    Its empty sleeves; and yet its mimic motion
    Made constant cry,”
