Hear beyond the silver reach in ringing wild persistence

Reel remote the ululating laughter of the loons;

See the shy moose fawn nestling by its mother,

In a cool marsh pool where the sedges meet;

Rest by a moss-mound where the twin-flowers smother

With a drowse of orient perfume drenched in light and heat:

She would see the dawn rise behind the smoky mountain,

In a jet of colour curving up to break,

While like spray from the iridescent fountain,

Opal fires weave over all the oval of the lake:
