Gush forth in the shade of the cliff-eagle's wings,

Down whose slopes to the lowlands thy cold waters shine,

Leaping gray walls of rock, flashing through the dwarf pine.

"From that cloud-curtained cradle, so cold and so lone,

From the arms of that wintry-locked mother of stone,

By hills hung with forests, through vales wide and free,

Thy mountain-born brightness glanced down to the sea."

GOING DOWN EAST.
