"PENN-SYLVANIA"
(Penn's Woods)
It seems the joy of Heaven
Just flashes at sunset's glow,
Over the Alleghenies
And the rivers down below;
From Lake Erie to the Delaware.
O'er the Mason-Dixon Line,
You get a glimpse of Heaven
Each evening at sunset time.
A commonwealth of landscapes
From meadow to timber-line,
Keystone of the great Union,
Since
Kissed by Atlantic breezes,
From lands of the rising sun.
Home of the "Quaker City".
Where the Liberty Bell was rung,
Checkered with mighty highways,
Through mountain, valley and glen,
And beautified by rivers,
Is this wonderland of Penn;
Where states were forged in Union.
And were welded to remain,
At Valley Forge and Gettysburg,
In the land of Anthony Wayne.

seventeen eighty-nine:
A Pennsylvania Beauty View
Back:
When William Penn completed his deal for
Penn's Woods, now called Pennsylvania, he
little realized that in that tract would even-
tually be found nature's whole line of scenic
splendors. Hain's poem pictures this natural
beauty with native historical ability.
