Severn Sound

Famous quotes containing the words severn and/or sound:

    On Wenlock Edge the wood’s in trouble;
    His forest fleece the Wrekin heaves;
    The gale, it plies the saplings double,
    And thick on Severn snow the leaves.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    An old pond—
    a frog tumbles in—
    the sound of water.
    Matsuo Basho (1644–1694)
