“Westward the course of empire takes its way.
- Bishop Berkeley.
Say, what shall be said of the great Bishop's town
Bishop, and prophet, and poet, and seer?
Why, pluck up a cedar, and set her fame down
In gold and in flower-fed atmosphere.
City of cities in stories to be
Classical, scholar-built Berkeley.
Roosevelt f
Aye, write her fair story as fair as a star,
As sweet as her sea-winds, as strong as her sea
City with never a stain or a scar-
City of deeds and of destiny:
Sea-born and sun-bred Mecca to be
Matchless, magnificent Berkeley.
- Joaquin Miller
