Flow on for ever in thy glorious robe
	Of terror and of beauty;  *  *  *  God hath set,
	His rainbow on thy forehead; and the cloud
	Mantles around thy feet. And He doth give
	Thy voice of thunder power to speak of Him
	Eternally, bidding the lip of man
	Keep silence, and upon thy rocky altar pour
	Incense of awe-struck praise.

Mrs. Sigourney.    

	“Niagara! wonder of this western world,
	And half the world beside! hail, beauteous queen
	Of cataracts!” An angel who had been
	O’er heaven and earth, spoke thus, his bright wings furled,
	And knelt to Nature first, on this wild cliff unseen.
