Blue Mountains - a quotation

Blue Mountains


Like ramparts round the valley’s edge,

The tinted cliffs are standing,


With many a broken wall and ledge,

And many a rocky landing.


And round about their rugged feet,

Deep ferny dells are hidden,


In shadowed depths, whence dust and heat,

Are banished and forbidden.


Henry Lawson
