But he and Fleming were generally supposed to be captain and first mate of the pirate craft that passed with us for the ship of state.

MOUNT soPRIs

Old Mt Sopris greets the sunlight
When the Valleys shaded 'er,
This he's done for countless ages
And will do it countless more.
On his peaks the native Red Men
Looked with awe and wonder too,
As they camped beneath the Pinon
Near the Roaring Fork so blue.
O'er his rugged sides in Cloudland
Lies the snow in Crystal drifts,
And the play of light and shadow
Looks like Ghosts or painted Ships.
Herds of Elk and Deer were roaming
Meath the Quakin' Asp and Pine,
Little dreaming of the coming
OF the Pale Face and his mine.
Gone the Red Man and his quarry
To that dark and cloudy shore,
And the peaks of mighty Sopris
Shall not know them any more.
Cleans the Peak above the Valley
A sentinel so grand,
A boon to many thousands
As it irrigates the land.
For the White Man soon discovered
That the snow upon its crest,
Was the source of many waters
The pride of all the West.
