Explore "Ode. to a Mountain Torrent. from the German of Stolberg" by George Borrow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
O stripling immortal thou forth dost career / From thy deep rocky chasm; beheld has no eye / The mighty one's cradle, and heard has no ear / At his under-ground spring-head his infant-like cry.
How lovely art thou in the foam of thy brow, / And yet the warm blood in my bosom grows chill; / For awful art thou and terrific, I vow, / In the roar of the echoing forest and hill.
