THE NETHERLANDS by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE

Poet Analysis

First Line: WATER AND WINDMILLS, GREENNESS, ISLETS GREEN
Last Line: AND WATER SEEN --
Subject(s): NETHERLANDS; TRAVEL; HOLLAND; DUTCH PEOPLE; JOURNEYS; TRIPS;

Water and windmills, greenness, Islets green; --
Willows whose Trunks beside the shadows stood
Of their own higher half, and willowy swamp: --
Farmhouses that at anchor seem'd -- in the inland sky
The fog-transfixing Spires --
Water, wide water, greenness and green banks,
And water seen --
