Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pioneer Citizens´ History of Atlanta: 1833 1902 Atlanta. By Charles W. Hubner. Majestic, beautiful, a shape of splendor, With Beauty´s magic cestus chastely zoned, A Queen, to whom true hearts their homage render, Upon her hills Atlanta sits enthroned; How splendid is her smile! like sunshine raying Its iridescent glory after rain, As she looks forth with sparkling eyes surveying The panorama of her vast domain; From mountains, which beneath the north star´s beaming Sublimely lift to heaven their snow-crowned heads, To where the ocean´s opalescent gleaming Illumes shell-jeweled shores, her empire spreads; The bird that farthest cleaves, with daring pinion, The azure spaces of empyrean air, Looks down upon no lordlier dominion, No richer realm, no heritage more fair. Our peerless Queen! Behold her calmly sitting, Holding the reins of empire in her hand, With comely grace and stately mien befitting The sovereign ruler of a mighty land; With eagle eyes she scans the forward distance, And reads her happy future in the stars - To faith like hers, to such sublime insistence, Fate yields, and with a smile her gate unbars!
