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. |
