Mighty Eagle

SUPPOSED TO BE ADDRESSED TO WILLIAM GODWIN.
[Published in 1882 ("Poetical Works of P. B. S.") by Mr. H. Buxton
Forman, C.B., by whom it is dated 1817.]
Mighty eagle! thou that soarest
O'er the misty mountain forest,
And amid the light of morning
Like a cloud of glory hiest,
And when night descends defiest                                      _5
The embattled tempests' warning!
