His blood-dyed waters murmuring far below.

Additional quotes by Thomas Campbell

Britannia needs no bulwarks,
No towers along the steep;
Her march is o'er the mountain waves,
Her home is on the deep.

There shall he love when genial morn appears,
Like pensive Beauty smiling in her tears.

Absence! is not the soul torn by it From more than light, or life, or breath? 'Tis Lethe's gloom, but not its quiet,— The pain without the peace of death!

On Prague's proud arch the fires of ruin glow, His blood-dyed waters murmuring far below. - Thomas Campbell
