Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Native Poets of Maine Proem. By William Belcher Glazier. Harp of the dark Pine forest-land! Harp, that the Poets' birth-place owns! How bold becomes the timorous hand, When once it wakes thy tones. Here, where the broadest rivers sweep, Here, where the dimmest woods are found, Our fondest memories start from sleep, Aroused by thy dear sound. Come, let me strike thy chords once more, And, while my fingers o'er them roam, Return the strain beloved of yore, And murmur, Harp, of Home. Yes, this is Home! its tasseled pines, Its rugged hills, its short-lived flowers, Its fields where Winter late reclines, Are cheerless, but are ours.
