Columbia y Switzerland

Mong Caro,ina's Western hills,
The land Of mountains, brooks and hills,
On AppalachIa's Eastern side,
Where earliest wages Of morning ride,
Here seems the air a liquid blue,
As if 'twcre formed Of vapored dew,
Through WEIGH sweet sounds come ring
ing clear,
From far, to ill tn enchanted ear.
Here waters clear as crystal run,
Beneath their depths the swimming sun,
And springs of arctic coIdness flow,
Fed by tears Of frozen snow.
The noisy falls, with Joyous leaps
hdown the rocks smooth-worn sleeps,
In Joyful mood with flying spray,
Dash 'gainst boulders huge Of granite
gray,
On North and West and South and East.
For eyes Of men perpetual feast,
Ascends, bewildering, peak 'bove peak,
And heaven bends with earth to speak.
Meath these mountains sinuous line,
With chesnnt clad and clinging vine,
Whose tendrils, firm in grasp entwino.
Rich beds of ferns, the lofty pine.
Here too are gorges dark and deep,
Where rocks and trees forever weep,
Where stiffness reigns, where echoes die,
v here hauats OF lasting silence lie.
And here arc mountain-circled plains
In valleys fed by welcome rains,
Dwell men Of treest, simplest heart,
TO till the earth their noblest art.
Such scenes as these, the sun at noon,
The stars at night and full-orbed moon,
Behold by purest brcczes famed,
In this-C0lumbia' Switzerland.
