14. Reported destruction of the Falls of Niagara.

'Twas said that the Falls, with a terrible din,

Had fall'n from their perch on high;

But now it falls out that they ne'er fell in,

And so 'twas a fals-i-ty.

'Tis shocking to spread such news appallible,

About these Falls, which are still infallible.
