Σελίδα 120 - Gray birch and aspen wept beneath; Aloft, the ash and warrior oak Cast anchor in the rifted rock; And, higher yet, the pine-tree hung His shattered trunk, and frequent flung, Where seemed the cliffs to meet on high, His boughs athwart the narrowed sky.
Σελίδα 120 - Grouped their dark hues with every stain The weather-beaten crags retain. With boughs that quaked at every breath...
