The poem 'The Brook' by Alfred Lord Tennyson is filled with prepositions.

The prepositions are highlighted according to their occurrence in the poem.

The Brook

I come from haunts of coot and hern,

  I make a sudden sally

And sparkle out among the fern,

  To bicker down a valley.

By thirty hills I hurry down,

  Or slip between the ridges,

By twenty thorpes, a little town,

  And half a hundred bridges.

Till last by Philip's farm I flow

  To join the brimming river,

For men may come and men may go,

  But I go on for ever.

I chatter over stony ways,

  In little sharps and trebles,

I bubble into eddying bays,

  I babble on the pebbles.

With many a curve my banks I fret

  By many a field and fallow,

And many a fairy foreland set

  With willow-weed and mallow.

I chatter, chatter, as I flow

  To join the brimming river,

For men may come and men may go,

  But I go on for ever.

I wind about, and in and out,

  With here a blossom sailing,

And here and there a lusty trout,

  And here and there a grayling,

And here and there a foamy flake

  Upon me, as I travel

With many a silvery waterbreak

  Above the golden gravel,

And draw them all along, and flow

  To join the brimming river

For men may come and men may go,

  But I go on for ever.

I steal by lawns and grassy plots,

  I slide by hazel covers;

I move the sweet forget-me-nots

  That grow for happy lovers.

I slip, I slide, I gloom, I glance,

  Among my skimming swallows;

I make the netted sunbeam dance

  Against my sandy shallows.

I murmur under moon and stars

  In brambly wildernesses;

I linger by my shingly bars;

  I loiter round my cresses;

And out again I curve and flow

  To join the brimming river,

For men may come and men may go,

  But I go on for ever.
