Excerpt from The Tweed: And Other Poems

The Tweed.

Description and Legend.

'Mid uplands first to wear the gleam of morn

And spread the early sheen of dewy grass,

While sweet wild flowers are breathing odours free,

And clear, air-borne, pathetic bleatings float,

And pewit's cry is heard, half-wail, half-wile, -

Voice dear unto the heart of solitude, -

And heron stalks, then slow majestic sails

Away short space, on low broad flapping wing; -

A lonely well uprises, sacred, clear.
