A CASCADING CHRONICLE
The cataract strong
”
Then plunges along,
Striking and raging
As if a war raging
Its caverns and rocks among;
Rising and leaping,
Sinking and creeping,
Swelling and sweeping,
Showering and springing,
Flying and flinging,
Writhing and ringing,
Eddying and whisking,
“Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word”.
Spouting and frisking,
Turning and twisting,
Around and around”
