Cache-Cache, A Tale In Verse by William Davy Watson is a sprawling verse-narrative that traces the life of Watty from childhood in the English Lake District to adulthood. Through vivid memories of Arrandale, Ormathwaite, Wandale, Deepdene, and the surrounding fells, the poem layers family history, friendship, and first loves around his sister Kate, the girl known as Cache-Cache, and their guardian Aunt Rachel. The narrative follows Watty’s schooling at Ascham-house, in London, and at Cambridge, where friendships with Caleb Fenwick and a circle of scholars spark debates about liberty, science, and faith. The work interweaves pastoral imagery with episodes of romance and tragedy, notably the ward Roland Delaunay, who becomes Cache-Cache, and her death later in the tale. Across episodes titled Proem, A New Face, Day-Dreams, and Wreck, the speaker wrestles with doubt and belief, science and religion, culminating in a mature peace and a reaffirmed bond with memory and home.
