INSCRIPTION SUPPOSED FOUND ... HERMIT'S CELL: 3, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Hast thou seen, with flash incessant
Last Line: From the rock eternity!


HAST thou seen, with flash incessant,
Bubbles gliding under ice,
Bodied forth and evanescent,
No one knows by what device?
Such are thoughts! --
A wind-swept meadow
Mimicking a troubled sea,
Such is life; and death a shadow
From the rock eternity!
