Sheer as the world’s end, seemed to float in air

Over the hollow of space, and change their forms

Like soft blue wood-smoke, with each change of light.

Here massed red boulders, over the Angel Trail

Darkened to thunder, or like a sunset burned.

Here, while the mind reeled from the imagined plunge,

Tall amethystine towers, dark Matterhorns,

Rose out of shadowy nothingness to crown

Their mighty heads with morning.

Here, wild crags
