> Grace Bussell rode down that cliff
I think I saw the 1982 movie with that scene, but for some reason they'd gender-swapped the heroine?
And she raced him down the cliffside like a torrent down its bed,
While victims in the surf watched in very fear.
She sent the red stones flying, but the old grey kept his feet,
He cleared the tangled bushes in his stride,
And the girl from Marg'ret River never shifted in her seat -
It was grand to see that western horseman ride.
(well, at least that's how it went if one believes the Inquirer and Commercial News account over Isaacs', anyway: https://mrdhs.com.au/the-isaacs-family/ https://mrdhs.com.au/the-isaacs-family/ )
