THE CHAMOIS HUNTER'S LOVE.
For all his wildness and proud fantasies,
I love him!
Croly.
Thy heart is in the upper world, where fleet the Chamois bounds,
Thy heart is where the mountain-fir shakes to the torrent-sounds;
And where the snow-peaks gleam like stars, through the stillness of the air,
And where the Lauwine's[1] peal is heard—Hunter! thy heart is there!
