'Tis now the raven's bleak abode ; Tis now th...
Pàgina 200 - Now I gain the mountain's brow, What a landscape lies below ! No clouds, no vapours intervene. But the gay, the open scene, Does the face of nature show, In all the hues of heaven's bow ! And swelling to embrace the light, Spreads around beneath the sight.
