The triggering event for the next round of this cascade is the downgrade of the monolines and the ensuing sharp drop in equity markets; both will trigger margin calls and further credit disintermediation.— Conceptual Guerilla - Central Command in the War of Ideas

This cascade is at the east point of a cove, lying in S.W. two miles, which I named Cascade Cove.— A General History and Collection of Voyages and Travels — Volume 14
Near the high Southampton road it forms the above cascade, descending into a glen romantically shaded with plantations of birch, willow, and acacia Hollowly here the gushing water sounds With a mysterious voice; one might pause Upon its echoes till it seemeth a noise Of fathomless wilds where man had never walked Or it may be described in the graphic words of Thomson With woods o'erhung, and shagg'd with mossy rocks Whence on each side the gushing waters play And down the rough cascade white dashing fall Or gleam in lengthened vista through the trees Beside the cascade is a stone cave, "moss-o'ergrown," constructed with fragments of immense size and curious shape that were originally dug up at Bagshot Heath, and are supposed to be the remains of a Saxon cromlech.— The Mirror of Literature, Amusement, and Instruction Volume 19, No. 533, February 11, 1832
After all, I do not know that the cascade is anything more than a beautiful fringe to the grandeur of the scene; for it is very grand, -- this fissure through the cliff, -- with a steep, lofty precipice on the right hand, sheer up and down, and on the other hand, too, another lofty precipice, with a slope of its own ruin on which trees and shrubbery have grown.— Passages from the English Notebooks, Volume 1.
