Poesy by a Native
On inside back cover of James Clyman's Diary, 1844–46
The Firrs their length their Extreme hight
As yet remains in doubt
But Tradition throws an obscur light
That many had grown Quite out of sight
Ere Hood Began to Sprout.

An Address to Mount Hood
On inside front cover
Say mighty peak of tremendious hight
What brot you forth to etherial light
From Earths inmost deepest womb
Was central earth so Jamd so pent
That thou arose to give it vent
Or for some other purpose sent
A Monumental Tomb
What brot you forth to etherial light
From Earths inmost deepest womb
Was central earth so Jamd so pent
That thou arose to give it vent
Or for some other purpose sent
A Monumental Tomb
To shew that once in Licqid heat
The Earth had flowed a burning sheet
Of melted wavering fire
That animation Flaming lay
A molten Mixed wase rocks and clay
When thou a bubble rose to play
Above the funeral pyre.
