Product Description
Excerpt from Angelo: A Poem
Of the advancing autumn, but as yet Clad with full verdure by the dense-leaved vines That decked them everywhere. Valley and hills, And the great,'yellow river sluggishly Washing their foot, all bathed and flooded now By the last mellow light Of golden evening; The sun already hanging low, the shadows E'en now half purphng In the deeper dells Where his beams reached no more.
