High soaring rock, and purple peak.
Yon central isle, of sombre pines,
With dark green hue, and spreading bough,
Reflected in the water shines,
A softer vision seen below!
Around, unnumbered fairy isles
In rich luxuriant verdure lie,
Like gems amidst the waters’ smiles,
Or bright clouds on a summer sky.
Fair, spreading trees along the shore
