The Deserted Village
by Oliver Goldsmith

(lines 10-14)

The sheltered cot, the cultivated farm;
The never-failing brook, the busy mill,
The decent church that topped the neighboring hill:
The hawthorn-bush, with seats beneath the shade
For talking age and whispering lovers made!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
