THE OLD OAK.
Here have I stood, the pride of the park.
In winter with snow on my frozen bark ; In spring 'mong the flowers that smiling she spread.
And among my own leaves when summer was fled.
Three hundred years my top I have rais'd, Three hundred years I have sadly gaz'd O'er Nature's wide extended scene ; O'er rushing rivers and meadows green, For though I was always willing to rove, I never could yet my firm foot move.
They fell'd my brother, who stood by my side.
And flung out his arms so... wide, so wide ; How envy I him, for how blest is he, As the keel of a vessel he sails so free 150 THE OLD OAK.
Around the whole of the monstrous earth ; But I am still in the place of my birth.
I once was too haughty by far to complain, But am become feeble through age and pain ; And therefore I often give vent to my woes, When through my branches the wild wind blows.
A night like this, so calm and clear, I have not seen for many a year ; The milk-white doe and her tender fawn Are skipping about on the moonlight lawn ; And there, on the verge of my time-worn root.
