And yellow pod-flowers every slope adorn.

From the green summits of the leafy hills

Descend with murmuring lapse three limpid rills;

Beneath the rose-trees loitering slow they glide,

Now tumbles o’er some rock their crystal pride;

Sonorous now they roll adown the glade,

Now plaintive tinkle in the secret shade;

Now from the darkling grove, beneath the beam

Of ruddy morn, like melted silver stream,

Edging the painted margins of the bowers,
