Dutt, Greece Chunder - ZaunköniG - 28.08.2022 Greece Chunder Dutt (1833–1892) Indien The Hills. How sweet 'twere here an anchorite to dwell, Here in the presence of this white cascade! To muse at noon beneath this grateful shade, With bead and crucifix to haunt this cell; Fresh wholesome fruits to gather in the dell, At early morn what time broad lights invade The dew-gemmed coverts of the peaceful glade, And listening silence broods o'er rock and fell; With solemn cheer to mark at eve on high The stars leap forth, to lie on this smooth stone Strewed with crisp leaves, and hear the owlet's cry Borne on the breeze from crag and cavern lone, Or close in balmy sleep the languid eye, Lulled by the deep-voiced Teesta's soothing tone. . |
