Percy Shelley

And nearer to the river's trembling edge  25
  There grew broad flag-flowers, purple prank'd with white, 
And starry river-buds among the sedge, 
  And floating water-lilies, broad and bright, 
Which lit the oak that overhung the hedge 
  With moonlight beams of their own watery light;  30
And bulrushes, and reeds of such deep green 
As soothed the dazzled eye with sober sheen.
