Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pine-Cones and Needles: A Collection of Poems To the River at Mechisses Mechisses, Mechisses, thy mad river hisses, And dashes, and splashes, the same as of old; As down through the valley its springs make a sally To join the wild waves by the Ocean uprolled. It tumbles and rumbles; it groans and it grumbles; It moans as it stumbles o´er stones in its path; O´er boulders and pebbles it doubles its troubles; It boils and it bubbles, and roars in its wrath. Through forest and meadow, in sunshine and shadow, It gleams and it glooms by day and by night; Past hillside and mountain, past millside and fountain, It glides and it slides, never staying its flight. Under green-tufted ridges, past by-ways and bridges, And edges of ledges, and glistening sands; Through town and through village, through pasture and tillage, It winds as it finds its lone way through the lands, Till the tide-waters leap, as from Ocean they sweep To welcome its ripples and mingle their foam; Now merrily married, far downward they´re carried, Far onward and seaward in joyance to roam. I love thee, sweet river, forget will I never The scenes where my childhood was spent long ago; Thy waves and thy billows, thy deeps and thy shallows More brightly than ever in memory glow. Ye glad, dancing waters, where now are the daughters And sons of Mechisses with whom I once strayed - fond lads and coy misses, whose tender caresses Were so dear and sincere when together we played?
