There’s a famous poem by Thomas Wyatt written in 1539:
Tagus, Farewell,
Tagus, farewell, that westward, with thy streams,
Turns up the grains of gold already tried,
With spur and sail for I go seek the Thames,
Gainward the sun that show'th her wealthy pride,
And to the town which Brutus sought by dreams,
Like bended moon doth lend her lusty side.
My King, my Country, alone for whom I live,
Of mighty love the wings for this me give.
He was returning to London after a diplomatic mission in Spain.
