  Flow like a free and flowing river.
            —Anonymous		  1

            —Thomas Babington Macaulay		  2

            —Thomas Moore		  3
Bubble, bubble, flows the stream
Like an old tune through a dream.
            —Maurice Thompson		  4
  Flow as hugely as the sea.
            —William Shakespeare		  5
  Flowed like light amid the shadows of the sea cast from one cloudless star.
            —Percy Bysshe Shelley		  6
  Flowed by like the streaming images of sleep.
            —Edith Wharton		  7
                Flow,
Like smoke, along the level of the blast,
In mighty currents.
