To rain, to snow, to seet, or burning
Thine age declares thy to abide
The changes wrought by all the

Thou art the largest white oak in our land
Indeed thou the giant towering all,
Yet standing sereney along by the road
That leads to busy cities on the Eastern Shore

Of the Sierras, in California transcend the history
OF many generations of mankind. Those colossal trees
Can not surpass thee in thy strength and snew
Thou too hast power TO live through vanished years
Thy strength diminished with years
Thy boughs drank in new beauty with each storm;
Thy trunk has sent its ever-deepening roots
Into the breast of earth. when tempests ragged
And roared! may my heart thy lesson from thee learn
From all the storms that my spirit move
| can emerge with joy. and smile through my tears,
Because great rapture will come to any heart
That knows deep grief and pain So may it be!
Perchance thou wilt have robins nests this year!
Tis true there no birds in last years nests.
And safety in thy beauteous brawny limbs old oak
Thou art mansion, Wye, for a dwelling place;
Thy beauty spread across vast space of lawn,
Where greensward greets the penetrating eyes
OF robin redbreast, will please him. His young robins
viii chirp and clutch thy branches, as they learn
To fly from thy majestic limbs sheltered by thy leaves
There legend old, that tells of thy beginning.
When Maryland was the hunting ground for warriors
OF a vanishing race, and for brave hunters
Who would place their wigwams the forest glade
Brave Eagle Eye brought gentle Wing tepee
Their lives bound in tender, glowing love-
One day warriors pierced her tender heart;
There a struggle, Eagle Eye slain. Within thy
Hallowed Indian and princess
Thine grew out of their peace filled Breasts
Well did the poet say, God makes the tree
And God made thee, o Wye thou spacious oak;
He touched with power, thine acorn which He made;
He breathed life into it, it could grow and grow
thy trunk and limbs thy buds leaves,
F1aring all the winds that blew upon thee
