HILLS OF OHIO, by                    
First Line: With their heads adorned in splendor
Last Line: Than the hills of old ohio in the fall.
Subject(s): Mountains; Hills; Downs (great Britain)


With their heads adorned in splendor
And dark shadows at their feet,
With their slopes a mottled pattern
In rich red and gold replete,
As they roll away in glory
I must answer to their call, --
The hills of old Ohio in the fall.

When the frost has burned their summits,
Set on fire their lambent crests,
And the sunsets of October
Seep through haze across their breasts, --
Naught more lovely is created
By the maker of it all
Than the hills of old Ohio in the fall.
