IN SUMMER WHEN THE VALES ARE CLEAR, by                     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Ye, everlasting summits, do abide in sun!
Subject(s): Weather; Alps; Valleys


In summer when the Vales are clear
''aAnd lowland hedges toss their flowery lights,
How oft the great Alps disappear
''aAnd mists invade your foreheads, O ye sovran heights!
But when midwinter's bitterest power
''aMust be endured, and the chill rose is done
And little farms in valleys cower
''aYe, everlasting summits, do abide in sun!
