Poems (Frances Elizabeth Browne)/Hwarden Heys
HAWARDEN HEYS.
All around 't is fairy ground, Nature's magic here displayed,By romantic beauties crowned, Hill and dale, and light and shade.
Trees of various form and hue Wildly scattered o'er the scene,Here, a wide and lovely view, There, the Heys embowered in green!
If to pensive thought inclined, Here the wanderer may stray,And in wood or valley find Shelter from the blaze of day.
Climb the hill, and there the eye A wide expanse of earth may see;Art and nature equal vie To form the rich variety.
But haply eve's pale tints you love,— Perchance you prize the moonlight ray;Go, watch, then, Cynthia rise above Yon ruined castle's turrets gray.
