Excerpt from Legend of a Lake There is a legend, ' told in Indian tongue, That dates far back to pre-historic days; Tradition hands it down from old to young, In tribal language with unfeigning ways. But many search from plain to mountain crest, And follow trails that lead o'er hill and dale, To find the waters of a lake,2 and test The truth or fiction of a wondrous tale. While others delve amid forgotten lines, To seek new light from legendary signs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
