As for your still waters running deep, it'd be a better proverb to my mind to say deep waters run still at times. Niagara's deepish, folks say that have seen it. That's not to say that I even myself with Niagara, you'll understand, though 'tis in my nature to splash about a good deal.
The four hosemen staggered as the stream ripped from the nozzle, crackling like pistol discharges. There was no question as to Uncle Trufant's ability to get the most out of the ancient pride of Vienna. He knew Niagara's resources. "Ease her!" he screamed, after the first dizzy staccato of the beams. "Ease her! Steady! Get your motion! Up down! Up down! Get your motion! Take holt of her! Lift her!

In a moment the air was full of brightness, each raindrop catching a portion of sunlight as it fell, and the whole gentle shower appearing like a mist, just substantial enough to bear the burden of radiance. A rainbow vivid as Niagara's was painted in the air.
