"He with a smile did then his words repeat: 
And said that, gathering leeches, far and wide 
He travelled: stirring thus about his feet 
The waters of the pools where they abide.
“Once I could meet with them on every side;
But they have dwindled long by slow decay;
Yet still I persevere, and find them where I may.”
                  
WORDSWORTH, Resolution and
  Independence, 1802
