Text in the image

Of the savage horn from the mountain towerAs the wild-eyed huntsman gazed.And the roar of the stormy chase went byThrough the dark unquiet sky!The stag sprang up from his mossy bed,When he caught the piercing soundsAnd the oak-boughs crashed to his hunter's treadAs he flew from the, viewless hounds;And the falcon soared from her craggy height,Away through the rushing night!The lioness shrunk on its ancient hold,And the pine in its desert place,As the cloud and tempest onward rolledAs the wild-eyed huntsman passed.The fay sprung up from his mossy bed,And the oak-boughs crashed to his hunting-hornAs he flew from the niceby hounds;The vulture shrieks on its ancient hold,Read automatically; may contain mistakes.
