The Fairy-Land of Science
·

But
the
sun
and
air
will
not
let
it
all
fall
down
at
once,
and
the
winds
which
are
blowing
from
the
equator
to
the
poles
carry
large
masses
of
it
away
with
them.
Then,
as
you
know,
it
will
depend
on
many
things
how
far
this
vapour
is
carried.
Some
of
it,
chilled
by
cold
blasts,
or
by
striking
on
cold
mountain
tops,
as
it
travels
northwards,
will
fall
in
rain
in
Europe
and
Asia,
while
that
which
travels
southwards
may
fall
in
South
America,
Australia,
or
New
Zealand,
or
be
carried
over
the
sea
to
the
South
Pole.
Wherever
it
falls
on
the
land
as
rain,
and
is
not
used
by
plants,
it
will
do
one
of
two
things;
either
it
will
run
down
in
streams
and
form
brooks
and
rivers,
and
so
at
last
find
its
way
back
to
the
sea,
or
it
will
sink
deep
in
the
earth
till
it
comes
upon
some
hard
rock
through
which
it
cannot
get,
and
then,
being
hard
pressed
by
the
water
coming
on
behind,
it
will
rise
up
again
through
cracks,
and
come
to
the
surface
as
a
spring.
These
springs,
again,
feed
rivers,
sometimes
above-
ground,
sometimes
for
long
distances
under-ground;
but
one
way
or
another
at
last
the
whole
drains
back
into
the
sea.
