We have found the "Forts" and also Pimo (or Pima as some pronounce the name) with its Princess and her child. And have we not found the Gulf and Canyon referred to by the departed Ancients. Have we not found everything except perhaps the abandoned imperial Lute? And even it may yet be recovered. Let it be dug for at the Cliff of the Harp. Perhaps it may yet be resurrected-- "A Harp that in darkness and silence forsaken Has slumbered while ages rolled slowly along, Once more in its own native land may awaken And pour from its chords all the raptures of song. "Unhurt by the dampness that o'er it was stealing, Its strings in full chorus, resounding sublime, May 'rouse all the ardor of patriot feeling And gain a bright wreath from the relics of time."
