And when the orange flood came roaring in
From Fundy’s tumbling troughs and tide-worn caves,
While red Minudie’s flats were drowned with din
And rough Chignecto’s front oppugned the waves,
How blithely with the refluent foam I raced
Inland along the radiant chasm, exploring
The green solemnity with boisterous haste;
My pulse of joy outpouring
To visit all the creeks that twist and shine
From Beauséjour to utmost Tormentine.
