A LAY OF THE LAKES *►“SOn a fairy isle, neath northern skies,A chief wilh princely dower,Ruled o'er his people in counsels wise.Nor feared he the Evil Power.But a villainous monster plotted long, la his cave by the shining water*And by the lure of a magic songEnchanted the chieftain’s daughter.Far under the banks of the rushing tide He carried her—cool, designing;And many have seen her by his side , In the deep sea water pining.In derision he promised to come on shore,His treasure to deliver:11'hen. * Bail -go-ting' s roar is heard no more And silently fioivs the river AHe dashes the surf where the waters fall,His tail the river lashes;He laughs in glee at the other's call,And turns, and squirms, and splashes.The sorrowing chieftain tries and tries To still the rushing water,And ever and ever he cries and cries:“fMaw-chonl Mah-chon! My daughter!”*Soo River rapid* f'Run away, or “Go way.John C. Wright.
