For many a league ; the trees so bare, That stirred not in the breezy air, But shattered by the tempest s rage, Half buried stood in withered age ; The waves, that washed their thirsty base. Stretched outward through unbounded space, No other shore revealed to sight ; The one bald eagle in his might, That from his blasted tree looked down Four times a hundred feet upon Their gliding skiff; and, spread above, O er all the heavens that never move These formed a scene as strange and rude, And with... as deep an awe imbued, As ere was made for solitude. As spied they round no living thing, Save one that cowered its idle wing ; Nor heard a sound, except the wave Slow heaving o er its pebbly pave ; Nor saw a moving form, beside Their moving shadows on the tide, Their bosoms dared not throb aloud They were alone alone with God ! XI. On, on they fled. At last a scene Rose lovelier than in dreams hath been, Where many a mile, from wave to skies, Sublime the Pictured Rocks arise, And gain from years of sun and storms But added glories, brighter forms.
