Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Rhyme of the Southern Rivers: With Notes Historical, Traditional, Geographical, Etymological, Etc;; For the Use of Teachers, Schools, and General Readers

Where are all the rhythmic rivers of our sunny Southern clime, Rivers named in Indian legend or in tongue of later time Rivers quaint, or rivers mighty, rivers grand, or rivers Wee From the trickling o'er the pebbles, to the sound or gulf or sea? How do all their waters fiow, From their fountains gushing, through the mountains rushing Past the mosses and the ferns; Then, with tireless toil and turns, Dashing deftly, splashing swiftly; Over cascades curling, in the pastures purling; Round through. Rugged rocky caverns whirling; Over ledges lightly leaping, through the valleys softly sweeping Gracefully and slow; By the busy cities creeping, in the murky marshes sleeping Peacefully, dreamily and low; How through forest and the bayou wending, With the Ocean and its myriads blending From the mosses and the ferns, How with ceaseless, tireless toil and turns Then do all these rivers How To their sea-home With the sea-foam? Where are heard their noisy numbers? Where are kept their restless slumbers?
