[Footnote Ee: Compare Coleridge's 'Hymn before Sun-rise, in the Vale of
Chamouni':

And you, ye five wild torrents fiercely glad!
. . .
. . . Who, with living flowers
Of loveliest blue, spread garlands at your feet?
. . .
O struggling with the darkness all the night,
And visited all night by troops of stars,
. . .
The Arve and Arveiron at thy base
Rave ceaselessly;

Compare also Shelley's 'Mont Blanc'. --Ed.
