Alfred Tennyson - The Eagle

Lord Alfred Tennyson

The Eagle

(Fragment)

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;

Close to the sun in lonely lands,

Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

 

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;

He watches from his mountain walls,

And like a thunderbolt he falls.
