A Dialogue

S.

Fall on, fall on, ye mighty Falls
I'm going now to make my calls;
When I come back I hope I will
Just find you falling, falling still.

 

M.

But lest you lose your chance, my friend,
You'd better stay and see the end;
Lake Erie's "packing up her awls"
Perhaps she may discharge the Falls.
