LINES WRITTEN FOR MOUNT BLANC, by PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEYPoet AnalysisPoet's Biography
First Line: There is a voice, not understood by all Last Line: Descending on the pines -- the torrents pour.
THERE is a voice, not understood by all, Sent from these desert-caves. It is the roar Of the rent ice-cliff which the sunbeams call, Plunging into the vale -- it is the blast Descending on the pines -- the torrents pour.
