​All along the river everything is green and lush.  I‘ve always admired the weeping willows and the way that their fronds cascade down to the riverside.  William Blake seems to have had the same feelings because he wrote a poem around 1804 which Refers to England as “this green and pleasant land.”  This poem, set to music by Sir Hubert Parry in 1916, has become known as the second national anthem of England.  It is sung at many sporting events and always as the second to last item at the Last Night of the Proms every year at the Royal Albert Hall.
