THE VOLCANO HOUSE by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: NEAR MAUNA LOA'S MOUNTAIN TOP
Last Line: THAT WONDER LAND DOTH SEEM.
Subject(s): HAWAII; MOUNTAINS; VOLCANOES; HILLS; DOWNS (GREAT BRITAIN);
Near Mauna Loa's mountain top
There is a Hostelry
Where host and hostess ever live
In fondest memory;
Volcano craters there surround
Amid escaping steam—
A page from Dante's Inferno
That wonder land doth seem.
