CAMDEN

Edna St Vincent Millay (1892-1950) referred to the Camden Hills in the beginning lines of her poem 'Renascence':

All I could see from where I stood
Was three long mountains and a wood;
I turned and looked another way,
And saw three islands in a bay.
So with my eyes I traced the line
Of the horizon, thin and fine,
Straight around till I was come
Back to where I'd started from;
And all I saw from where I stood
Was three long mountains and a wood.
