He reached the door; from there he took to flight;—

Up, up he went,—through wood and over hillside,

Up through the stone-screes, rough, precipitous.

He had his home up there among the mountains.—

It was some six months later he came here,

With mother, and betrothed, and little child.

He leased some ground upon the high hill-side,

There where the waste lands trend away towards Lomb.

He married the first moment that he could;

He built a house; he broke the stubborn soil;
