And soon I perceived that we were approaching a declivity of some sort,
because the little blue stream dipped suddenly out of sight.
In another moment, as it seemed, we had reached the edge. The shining
stream gave one meander of hesitation and then rushed over. It fell to a

Ezekiel 18: 31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, wherein ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Ezekiel 18: 32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD; wherefore turn yourselves, and live.
Ezekiel 19: 1 Moreover, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
Ezekiel 19: 2 and say: How was thy mother a lioness; among lions she couched, in the midst of the young lions she reared her whelps!
Ezekiel 19: 3 And she brought up one of her whelps, he became a young lion; and he learned to catch the prey, he devoured men.
Ezekiel 19: 4 Then the nations assembled against him, he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks unto the land of Egypt.
Ezekiel 19: 5 Now when she saw that she was disappointed, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion.
