Poems of Nature (Whittier)/Illustration 11

​

Twilight on Lake Winnipiseogee.

Along the sky, in wavy lines,
O'er isle and reach and bay,
Green-belted with eternal pines,
The mountains stretch away.
Below, the maple masses sleep
Where shore with water blends,
While midway on the tranquil deep
The evening light descends.
The Lakeside.
