Half sunk, a shatter'd visage liesâ¦. 1  Here the traveler begins his speech. He tells the speaker about a pair of stone legs that are somehow still standing in the middle of the desert. 2  Those legs are huge (vast) and trunkless.. Trunkless means without a torso, so it's a pair of legs with no body.
Beds Are Burning-Midnight Oil. Lyrics. Out where the river broke. The bloodwood and the desert oak. Holden wrecks and boiling diesels. Steam in forty five degrees. The time has come. To say fair's fair. To pay the rent. To pay our share.
