[The eagle fond her charge awakes]
As an eagle stirreth up her nest, &c.
—xxxii. 11, 12.
The eagle fond her charge awakes
Where in the nest they doze,
And while her fluttering plumes she shakes
The way to fly she shows;
She spreads her wings, her young to bear,
Before their own they try,
And takes them up, and cleaves the air,
And soars above the sky.
