This a long shot but am posting just in case someone knows the answer.

A patron is looking for a poem that contains the phrase "waters of
Ladore" (it *might* be the title). It also includes the words
"bubbling" and "roaring."

We have checked all the usual sources including Internet sources but
have not had any luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The Cataract at Lodore by Robert Southey (note spelling)

I found this on Bartletts online.

How does the water
Come down at Lodore?
The Cataract of Lodore.

there are lots more quotations from this poem, all about the water...

"Though my soul may set in darkness,
It will rise in perfect light,
I have loved the stars too fondly
To be fearful of the night...."
