    In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
    A stately pleasure-dome decree;
    Where Alph, the sacred river ran,
    Through caverns measureless to man
    Down to a sunless sea.

How sweet to move at summer's eve
By Clyde's meandering stream,
When Sol in joy is seen to leave
The earth with crimson beam;
When islands that wandered far
Above his sea couch lie,
And here and there some gem-like star
Re-opes its sparkling eye.

"O Mary, go and call the cattle home,
And call the cattle home,

Across the sands o' Dee;"

A small Euphrates thro' the piece is roll'd,
And little eagles wave their wings in gold.

Yet I will look upon thy face again,
My own romantic Bronx, and it will be
A face more pleasant than the face of men.
Thy waves are old companions, I shall see
A well remembered form in each old tree
And hear a voice long loved in thy wild minstrelsy.

Out of the hills of Habersham,
Down the valleys of Hall,
I hurry amain to reach the plain;
Run the rapid and leap the fall,
Split at the rock, and together again
Accept my bed, or narrow or wide,
And flee from folly on every side
With a lover's pain to attain the plain,
Far from the hills of Habersham,
Far from the valleys of Hall.
