Quotes:
What was he doing, the great god Pan,
Down in the reeds by the river?
Spreading ruin and scattering ban,
Splashing and paddling with the hoofs of a goat,
And breaking the golden lilies afloat
With the dragon-fly on the river.

Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

All quiet along the Potomac to-night,
No sound save the rush of the river,
While soft falls the dew on the face of the dead -
The picket's off duty forever. ['All Quiet Along the Potomac']
