Brook Trout Populations

Famous quotes containing the words brook, trout and/or populations:

    When the enterprising burglar isn’t burgling,
    When the cut-throat isn’t occupied in crime,
    He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling,
    And listen to the merry village chime.
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    All those girls
    who wore the red shoes,
    each boarded a train that would not stop.
    Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
    They all danced like trout on the hook.
    They were played with.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The populations of Pwllheli, Criccieth,
    Portmadoc, Borth, Tremadoc, Penrhyndeudraeth,
    Were all assembled. Criccieth’s mayor addressed them
    First in good Welsh and then in fluent English,
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
