Sweet the memory is to meOf a land beyond the sea,Where the waves and mountains meet,Where amid her mulberry-treesSits Amalfi in the heat,Bathing ever her white feetIn the tideless summer seas. In the middle of the town,From its fountains in the hills,Tumbling through the narrow gorge,The Canneto rushes down,Turns the great wheels of the mills,Lifts the hammers of the forge. ’Tis a stairway, not a street,That ascends the deep ravine,Where the torrent leaps betweenRocky walls that almost meet. Toiling up from stair to stairPeasant girls their burdens bear;Sunburnt daughters of the soil,Stately figures tall and straight,What inexorable fateDooms them to this life of toil? H.W.
