IN THE VALLEY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: The sierra-rock, a tavern for the clouds, refuses to let fame and gold sojourn
Last Line: O lord, show unto mortals thy journal—the balance of glory and decay!
Subject(s): Nature


THE Sierra-rock, a tavern for the clouds, refuses to let Fame and Gold
sojourn.—
Down the Heaven by the river-road, an Angel's ethereal shadow strays.—
The Genii in the valley-cavern consult in silence the message of the Heavens.
O Lord, show unto mortals thy journal—the balance of Glory and Decay!
