A Prairie sunset.
|
| Shot gold, maroon and violet, dazzling silver, |
| emerald, fawn, |
| The earth's whole amplitude and Nature's |
| multiform power consigned for once |
| to colors |
| The ^light, the very air diffused in possess'd by them,—colors till now |
| unknown |
| No limits, confines—not the west, the ern sky |
| alone—the high meridian—north, |
| south, all, |
| Pure, ^varied, brilliant colors, varied, fused and brilliant, fighting the silent, shadows to |
| the last. |
