BIVOUAC ON A MOUNTAIN SIDE.

12 lines
Walt Whitman·1819–1892
✦
see before me now a traveling army halting,Below a fertile valley spread, with barns and the orchards of summer,Behind, the terraced sides of a mountain, abrupt, in places risinghigh,Broken, with rocks, with clinging cedars, with tall shapes dingilyseen,The numerous camp-fires scatter'd near and far, some away up on themountain,The shadowy forms of men and horses, looming, large-sized,flickering,And over all the sky--the sky! far, far out of reach, studded,breaking out, the eternal stars.
