Cried laughing little Er,[58]

Let us go to yonder broad blue deep, Where the breakers foam and roar.

And on they scampered by valley and wood, By earth and air and sky, Till they came to a steep where the bare rocks stood, In a precipice mountain high.

Inya![59] cried Er, here's a dreadful leap, But we are gone so far, That if we flinch and return in fear, Nos,[60] he will cry ha! ha!

Now each was clad in a vesture light, That floated far behind, With sandals of frozen water drops, And wings of painted wind.



And down they plunged with a merry skip, Like birds that skim the plain; And hey! they cried let us up and try And down the steep again.

And up and down the daughters skipped, Like girls on a holiday, And laughed outright, at the sport and foam They called Niagara.

If ye would see a sight so rare, Where nature's in her glee, Go, view the spot in the wide wild west, The land of the brave and free.

But mark--their shapes are only seen In fancy's deepest play, But she plainly shews their wings and feet In the dancing sunny spray.
