Valley of Kashmir
“A Vale of purple glens and snow-cold streams,
Broad meadows lush with verdure, flowers and fruits,
Thr broad-leafed maple towering in his prode,
The temple’s noble run, on the height;
The poplar lines that mark the homestead there,
Calm lakes that bear the lotus on their breast.”
– C.R. Tollemache.
