'Mighty Eagle' by Percy Bysshe Shelley
Performed by
Percy Bysshe Shelley‘Mighty Eagle’ Annotated
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
The embattled tempests' warning!
