1.Charging along like troops in a battle

All through the meadows the horses and cattle.

2.All of the sights of the hill and the plain

fly as thick as driving rain.

Faster than fairies, faster than witches

Bridges and houses,hedges and

ditches

Here is a mill and there is a river

Faster than fairies, faster than witches.

Bridges and houses , hedges and ditches.

• Witches – Ditches

• Battle - Cattle

• Plain - Rain

• Eye – By

• Scrambles -Brambles

• Gazes - Daisies

• Road - Load

• River - Forever

A tramp who stands and

gazes

Driving Rain

Horses and cattle charging along through the medows

A child who clamblers and

scrambles
