neck แปลว่า

"The Neck no more upon the river sings. And no Mermaid to bleach her linen flings Upon the waves in the mild solar ray."

"The beautiful Nix or Nixie who allures the young fisher or hunter to seek her embraces in the wave which brings his death, the Neck who seizes upon and drowns the maidens who sport upon his banks, the river-spirit who still yearly in some parts of Germany demands tribute of human life, are all forms of the ancient Nicor[.]"
