Mario Botharis
He stood at the foot of that sacred hill
That was Once girt with his country's glory
And he thought dreamed that it were the some brightness still
The twilight of From the twilight clouds
Like the morning light of .
He looked at watched the strang stream at its foot that flow'd
And felt as he wandered fancied while wandering near it
That the spot where his freeborn fathers had banks land once liberty's loved souls had abode
those Was pregnant with freedoms liberty's spirit.†
And he looked around – but the Moslem's† were
Had scathed both mountain & river –
And freedom – sole Sun of the universe
Had set upon Greece for ever:
He looked & Then he heard a voice – & it said Awake!
Awake! for Greece is waking
And he felt the earth beneath him shake
And the mountains roused him shaking
