| 1 | Water is the mother of the vine, The nurse and fountain of fecundity. The adorner and refresher of the world. | Mackay | Charles |
| 2 | Till taught by pain, Men really know not what good water's worth; If you had been in Turkey or in Spain, Or with a famished boat's-crew had your berth, Or in the desert heard the camel's bell, You'd wish yourself where Truth is--in a well. | Byron | Lord |
| 3 | Water its living strength first shows, When obstacles its course oppose. | Goethe | |
| 4 | The current, that with gentle murmur glides, Thou know'st, being stopped, impatiently doth rage; But, when his fair course is not hinderèd, He makes sweet music with the enamelled stones, Giving a gentle kiss to every sedge He overtaketh in his pilgrimage. | Shakespeare | William |
| 5 | Mine be the breezy hill that skirts the down; Where a green grassy turf is all I crave, With here and there a violet bestrewn, Fast by a brook or fountain's murmuring wave: And many an evening sun shine sweetly on my grave. | Beattie | James |
| 6 | Along thy wild and willowed shore; Where'er thou wind'st, by dale or hill, All, all is peaceful, all is still | Scott | Walter |
| 7 | With spots of sunny openings, and with nooks To lie and read in, sloping into brooks. | Hunt | Leigh |
| 8 | The torrent's smoothness, ere it dash below! | Campbell | Thomas |
| 9 | Thou hastenest down between the hills to meet me at the road, The secret scarcely lisping of thy beautiful abode Among the pines and mosses of yonder shadowy height. Where thou dost sparkle into song, and fill the woods with light. | Larcom | Lucy |
| 10 | Brook! whose society the poet seeks, Intent his wasted spirits to renew; And whom the curious painter doth pursue Through rocky passes, among flowery creeks. And tracks thee dancing down thy water breaks. | Wordsworth | William |
