Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Far West Poems The Far, Far West. Once these fields, these beauteous western plains, Was but the habitation of strange men Whose history vanished with them; nor remains One treasured page to tell the white man when He first laid claim upon this scenic land, When first he strolled about these lovely hills, When first the wily chieftain led his band Of dusky warriors by these gentle rills. A child of Nature, born where prairies sweep In charming undulation far away, Where roll fair rivers, beautiful and deep, On which his light canoe was wont to play; What must have been the agony, at last, That filled his soul, when immigration´s flow Poured in upon his habitations fast, And he was forced to farther westward go. These prairies were his hunting grounds; ´twas here The bison thundered o´er the plains in fright; And wandering in timidity, the deer, At sight of some bold hunter, took its flight Across the greyish wastes of boundless space. And these were scenes that pleased the Indian´s eye, And made him furious for th´ exciting chase, That closed not ´till a many a-moon went by.
