An outline sketch of Minas Geraes

[[line across page]]

A sky of brilliant blue with clouds of snow
 And ancient rounded hills in living green,
With rust-red roads meandering below
 And palm trees waving in a far ravine.

[[line across page]]

The summits gleaming silver, bronze and gold
 Of wind-tossed grasses-waving spike and [[underlined]] plume [[/underlined]]
A humming bird, metallic blue and gold,
 On whirring wings above a scarlet bloom.
