THE RIDER OF THE HILL (A LEGEND) 1 Men say that early in this valley’s life An Indian tribe once lived upon the land Where now the college and the village stand. The chief was old in war, the foeman’s knife Had scarred him, and the fierce, relentless strife Of years had taken from him sons and wife, Leaving one girl to answer each command. 2 She was more beautiful than any maid The tribe could boast, and all her father’s pride And love were spent on her,—when day had died Into the west, and some remembered raid Stirred up old hates, her small hands, gently laid In his would calm him, and he often prayed And vowed that she should never leave his side. Z When night had come, and the retreating day Had swung his golden lantern in the west. When all the tribe were seeking quiet rest, Wide-eyed and visioning, the maiden lay Praying the only prayer her heart would pray: “When will he come, to take me far away And sooth this fluttering passion in my breast?” A 4 Through every night went up the same small prayer Until, on happy day, her warrior came. Handsome and strong, and touching with fame; She found in him all that she dreamed as fair. Day after wonderous day the happy pair Met, and the trees, the flowers—the very air Took on new beauty when he breathed her name. hands 5 But there were spies! At last the old knew The secret she had tried so hard to save From him; and when, next night, her warrior brave Came riding down to ner, the tribesmen slew Him and his horse. The chief said “Leave the two Where they have fallen—he made her untrue, And shall not have the honor of a grave. chief 5 The years flew by, and slowly, from the place Where they had lain, rose up a grour of trees Shaped like a horse and rider,—and through these That stand in memory of a dying race, All we who know and understand may trace A love that shall outlast all time and place Personified, imortalized in trees. —Thomas Randall Berkshire. 15
