Poem by Joaquin (Cincinnatus Hiner) Miller

The Sierra Nevadas

Serene and satisfied! Supreme! As lone
As God, they loom like God's archangels churl'd;
They look as cold as kings upon a throne;

A line of battle-tents in everlasting snow.

1. Dead in the Sierras
2. In Southern California
3. California on the Passing of Tennyson
4. Washington by the Delaware
5. A Dull Eyed Rattlesnake That Lay
