          Plaque at Locarno Springs, Hepburn Mineral Springs

          HEPBURN SPRINGS Where reverent gum trees gray-leaved aroming stems Enshrine the greem 'tween walls of slanting slate, Run waters, sihones from some buried grate, In drops more precious than deep mined gems. The elements are liquid in that stream and bursting bubbles charge the atmosphere The breath of nature moves the grasses here, and all is tranquil as a midday dream. The alchemist did set a mighty task, to list an learn the components of life, To change and find some radiant power new from atoms boiled in baking tube ad flask, and now we fear colossal human strife with things the caldrons of the Earth Eschew W.H.S. 1962
