First Line: There is health in thy gray wing
Last Line: And resume new life again.
Subject(s): Birds; Hawks


There is health in thy gray wing
Health of nature's furnishing.
Say thou modern-winged antique,
Was thy mistress ever sick?
In each heaving of thy wing
Thou dost health and leisure bring,
Thou dost waive disease & pain
And resume new life again.
