The stream is haunted with tradition, teeming with a score of romances that vie with its grandeur and loveliness, and of which its waters are perpetually whispering. But I learned this legend from one whose voice was like a dulcet as the swirling rapids; but, unlike them, that voice is hushed today, while the river, the river still sings on - sings on.
