Until you near, when with a scream
He plunges headlong in the stream.
This story first in early youth
I heard, and, lest it might be truth,
I ne'er the place have ventured nigh
Until the sun was pretty high.
But I forget, you do not know
The tale; but read, and I will show
You where it is, that you may go
('Tis best upon a drizzling night)
