For now in Peace the Paleface moves about,
While Lo and Laughing Water fight it out.
He was the first to fly—Darius Green!
But Green had trouble with his crude machine
And failed to make a mark for lofty flying,
And so he just dropped out and gave up trying.
The Pickaninny to the bayou goes
And caches on the bank his homespun clothes;
Then headlong leaps into the pool below
Where Imps of Darkness destined are to go.
