RIVER RHYMES

Can you complete the final line of these rhyming verses?

1)
As I was paddling down the Po,
A raven kept me on the go.
For every time I rowed to shore,
__________________________.

2)
The Amazon flows on and on,
Regardless of the season.
But German rivers ebb and flow,
With ______________________.

3)
A merchant who lives on the Tyne
Sells the water as pickling brine.
When asked why the price is high,
"_________________," he'll reply.

Answers:

1. Quoth the raven, "Never moor."
2. With far more Rhine and reason.
3. "Dill water runs steep," he'll reply
