COLOGNE
[ Also see Cities Germany ]

In Koln, a town of monks and bones,
  And pavement fang'd with murderous stones,
    And rags and hags, and hideous wenches,
      I counted two-and-seventy stenches,
        All well defined, and several stinks!
          Ye nymphs that reign o'er sewers and sinks,
            The River Rhine, it is well known,
              Doth wash your city of Cologne;
                But tell me, nymphs! what power divine
                  Shall henceforth whash the river Rhine.
      - Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Cologne
