Explore "The Brook and the Wave" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The brooklet came from the mountain, / As sang the bard of old, / Running with feet of silver / Over the sands of gold!
Far away in the briny ocean / There rolled a turbulent wave, / Now singing along the sea-beach, / Now howling along the cave.
And the brooklet has found the billow / Though they flowed so far apart, / And has filled with its freshness and sweetness / That turbulent bitter heart!
