Wenonah of the Wild - )
In the northern skies clear-shining,
Once, a star with emerald-gleam
Loved a chieftain's peerless daughter
By the great north-flowing stream.
Hair of ruby dipt in darkness
Blent with sunrise as with fire;
Eyes elate with love's young glory,
Deep with light of love's desire.
Cheek of nut-brown shadow glinted
With a blush of crimson glow;
Form elusive, spirit daring
As an arrow from the bow.
And the north land loved this daughter
Of the fragrant forest-wild,
Loved the dark entrancing beauty
Of the chieftain's peerless child:
