El Dorado

Gaily bedight A gallant knight In sunshine and in shadow Had journeyed long Singing a song In search of El Dorado But he grew old This knight so bold And o'er his heart a shadow Fell as he found No spot of ground That looked like El Dorado And, as his strength Failed him at length He met a pilgrim shadow- "Shadow," said he "Where can it be- This land of El Dorado?" "Over the Mountains Of the Moon Down the Valley of the Shadow Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied- "If you seek for El Dorado!"
