Then a teary torrent gushed from the maws of those twisted spouts, spreading over the ready reach of a surrounding land. Gathering puddles formed where rigid rock or cloistered clay would not allow easy entry.

"Ragged rain was as old as the raggedy human kind, an ever more ancient and ageless storm.

Most people whom it fell upon appeared always to move with upturned faces, eyes fixed on higher and better ground..."
