Opis: Winona a Dakota Legend - Huggins E. L.

Excerpt from Winona a Dakota Legend: And Other Poems
Winona: A Dakota Legend.
Proem.
How changed, fair Minnetonka, is thy face
Since rst I saw thee in thy pristine grace.
Electric lights fantastically glow,
Swarming like re-ies on the shores where long,
Through countless summer nights a vanished throng,
Only the Indian camp-re ickered low.
The odor of the baleful cigarette
Assails us now, where the mild calumet
Around the circle like a censer swung.
The notes of Strauss intoxicate the air,
And dainty feet in cadence twinkle there,
Where in rude strains the warriors' deeds were sung,
And where the Indian lover's plaintive ute
Lured to the trysting-place the dusky maid.
