“Stop, stop pretty water!"
Said Mary one day
To a frolicsome brook
That was running away.

"You run on so fast!
I wish you would stay;
My boat and my flowers
You will carry away.

But I will run after:
Mother says that I may;
For I would know where
You are running way."

But I have heard say,
That she never could find
Where the brook ran away.”
