"They stooped over the dark water. At first they could see nothing.

"Then slowly they saw the forms of the encircling mountains mirrored in a profound blue, and the peaks were like plumes of white flame above them; beyond there was a space of sky.

"There like jewels sunk in the deep shone glinting stars, though sunlight was in the sky above. Of their own stooping forms, no shadow could be seen."
