When Weirton Steel was powerful and poured-Columns of smoke and fumes into the air-North of Martins Ferry in the valley-And orange water tumbled from its sluices-Into an umber river far below-I was a boy. --Sonnet I, lines 1-6.

They affirm in many ways a nobility Wallace Stevens thought was hard to find in contemporary poetry.
