Explore "The Golden Mile-Stone" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Leafless are the trees; their purple branches / Spread themselves abroad, like reefs of coral, / Rising silent / In the Red Sea of the Winter sunset.
From the hundred chimneys of the village, / Like the Afreet in the Arabian story, / Smoky columns / Tower aloft into the air of amber.
