the squeak <d an old wooden syrup
mill and the bray of Balaunis beast
It is us 'pleasant as the midnight
squall of a wi d cal.
You ought to be proud that you
live in the mountains. They some
times call us ‘'boustirs, ’ but there
are many tilings that have their
origin in the highlands Nearly
all of the great rivers are born in
the mountains. First they are tint
streams, lined on each side by ivy.

only in eternity and are constantly

from Greenland’s icy mountains to
India’s coral strand,” because they
were ‘ just Irom the mountains.”
