Lemnos Harbour

© Leon Gellert

The island sleeps,-but it has no delight

Fragment X

© James Macpherson

It is night; and I am alone, forlorn
on the hill of storms. The wind is
heard in the mountain. The torrent
shrieks down the rock. No hut receives
me from the rain; forlorn on the hill of
winds.
