pgsql: The E.

From

Log Message:
-----------
The E. J. Pratt verse used as a tsearch test case is unfortunately still
under copyright in the US and many other places.  Substitute a little
something from a poet who's more safely dead.  Per gripe from Bjorn Munch.

The very deep did rot : O Christ !
That ever this should be !

Don't want to shoot your Albatross, but those lines were written by
Coleridge. Must give the appropriate credits :-)

Doh ... of course ... but why does Project Gutenberg have it filed
under Wordsworth?

Anyway, you are certainly correct; will go fix the attribution.

oh phooey, this spoils what I was going to post.

Worsworth would have proven a particularly ironic choice. He fought long and
