How does the water come down from Lodore
Here it comes sparkling,
And there it lies daIking,
Here smoking and frothlng,
Its tumut and wrath in.

Sinking and creeping,


Swelling and fngng,


Showering and sPruging,

Spouting and fIisking,


Turning and twisting,

With endless rebound.

And shocking and rocking,
And darting and parting,


And threading and spreading,
And whZzing and hiZZing:
And dripping and skipping,
And hitting and splitting,


And shining and twinlhg,

And shaking and quaklng,
And pouring and roaring,

But always descending,
Sounds and motions forever and ever blending,
Ali at once and all O'er,


With mighty uproar,
And this Is the way the Water CONES from Lodore
