V. THE SYCAMORE TREE, AMBLESIDE.
Straight-springing fount of summer cool and shade,Have then thy life-streams somewhere up the hill
A ceaseless store, a swift-descending rill,
That thus to heaven, in beauty unafraid,
Thou leapest into green? Or, by the aid
Of thine own purpose and thy generous will,
Hast thou from waters of the neighb'ring ghyll
An high-built summer-house for song-birds made?
Tall Welcomer,—by strangers first espied,
Reared o'er the milk-white walls and sunny eaves,—
The traveller loves thee, entering Ambleside;
And thee he turns to gaze at as he leaves:
Long may the woodman's axe to wanderers spare
Thy monumental presence high in air.
