Longfellow 



Va regando su esplendida corriente 

 Pero sus grandes aguas de repente 

 Se precipitan de una immensa altura 

 Yse guebrantan en la roca dura, 

 Yse trasforman en espuma hirviente. 



Al estruendoso golpe, espera nube 

 Alia se agita en el profundo seno 



Y vagarosa del abismo sube. 

 Tiembla y retiembla el barbaro terreno 



Y ante Dios arrodillase el querube 

 Alando oye cerca el incansable trueno.
