First Line: Mounting the hill I found it long
Last Line: Was the blue hill far behind me!
Subject(s): Mountain Climbing
MOUNTING the hill I found it long
Until I met a merry Song
That kissed mine eyes to blind me;
It mocked at me and turned and fled
But played on, fluttering overhead,
Till I forgot I went footsore
And the dusty road that rose before
Was the blue hill far behind me!
