Explore "Medway Song (Air: Carnaval De Venise)" by Edith Nesbit on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Let Housman sing of Severn shore, / Of Thames let Arnold sing, / But we will sing no river more / Save this where crowbars ring.
Let others sing of Henley, / Of fashion and renown, / But we will sing the thirteen locks / That lead to Tonbridge town! / Then sing the Kentish river, / The Kentish fields and flowers, / We waste no dreams on other streams / Who call the Medway ours.
