Poems of Nature (Whittier)/Illustration 3

​

Mount Chocorua.

The river hemmed with leaning trees
Wound through its meadows green;
A low, blue line of mountains showed
The open pines between.

One sharp, tall peak above them all
Clear into sunlight sprang:
I saw the river of my dreams,
The mountains that I sang!
A Mystery.
