Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gwen Wynn Hail to thee, "Wye - famed river of Siluria! Well deserving fame, worthy of warmest salutation! From thy fountain-head on Plinlimmon´s far slope, where thou leapest forth, gay as a girl on her skip-rope, through the rugged rocks of Brecon and Radnor, that like rude men would detain thee, snatching but a kiss for their pains - on, as woman grown, with statelier step, amid the wooded hills of Herefordshire, which treat thee with more courtly consideration - still on, and once more rudely assailed by the bold ramparts of Monmouth - through all thou makest way - in despite all, preserving thy purity! If defiled before espousing the ocean, the fault is not thine, but Sabrina´s - sister born of thy birth, she too cradled on Plinliminon´s breast, but since childhood´s days separated from thee, and straying through other shrines - perchance leading a less reputable life. No blame to thee, beautiful Vaga - from source to Severn pure as the spring that begets thee - fair to the eye, and full of interest to reflect on.
