Classic Poem

Eagle that has flown so high
Might have flown into the sky.
Eagle of so fair a flight,
Since it reached so far a height
Over land and ocean, might
Even fly
Out of sight into the sky.
Eagle is the Princess fair
Of the royal, graceful air,
Who, had greater worth been there
To descry,
Every rival would defy.
She, the royal eagle, gone
To her lord's imperial throne,
Has received it as her own,
Since her nature was to fly
To the furthest height of sky.
