Goddess of Woods, tremendous in the chace, To Mountain-wolves and all the Savage race, Wide o'er th' aerial Vault extends thy sway, And o'er th' infernal Regions void of day, On thy third Reign look down; disclose our Fate, In what new Nation shall we fix our Seat? When shall we next thy hallow'd Altars raise, And Quires of Virgins celebrate thy praise? | Other Poems of Interest...GREEK ARCHITECTURE by HERMAN MELVILLE THE VETERAN by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN SONG: NOT A WORD by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT LOVE'S MELODY by BARBARA MARIE BOOTH ON THE DEATH OF MR.
