To the River Charles

Explore "To the River Charles" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

River! that in silence windest / Through the meadows, bright and free, / Till at length thy rest thou findest / In the bosom of the sea!

Four long years of mingled feeling, / Half in rest, and half in strife, / I have seen thy waters stealing / Onward, like the stream of life.
