Said the preacher, there where the waters dance.

I saw as it were a shaft of light

Steal from her side, vanish from sight.

The cobbler said: it was like a comet;

The druggist, water by a bomb hit.

Yes, said the lawyer, I heard a splashing

And saw a light as of waters flashing

Or a thousand arrows of splendor flying

I heard a booming, banging, clanging

Of a bull's hide string, it was terrifying.
