but oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!

as eer beneath a waning moon was haunted
by woman wailing for her demon - lover!
and from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
as if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
a mighty fountain momently was forced:

huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,
or chaffy grain beneath the threshers flail:
andmid these dancing rocks at once and ever
it flung up momently the sacred river.
