The wind blew shrll, and the misty clouds
Swept ,hro' the good ships gallant shrouds;
The spirit Of storm wns abroad and free,
And toss'd the wild waters merrily.
A mariner gazed on the sweeping surge,
And then on the black horizons verge,
hen up to the heavens, SO dark and drear,
But still the seaman did not fear;
For he twirl'd the quid in his hollow cheek,
And call'd the watch from their stolen sleep,
Then smiled and thought on h . lass afar,
Nor cared he more for the waging war;
His ship sustain'd with the angry foam,
but spoke to his heart Of joys to come.
But why does that dark brown cheek grow palo
And why does he cling to 4. Q firm tafTerel,
And why does the hardy seaman stare,
Away on the sea with fearful glare;
And what, oh, what is that shadowy form,
Tha, rides the wnvcs Of the reeking storm!
II seems to float in the hazy mist,
Wheret the waters drive and the winds doth list
Now, now its form so drcar and dark,
Is beating Gown on our gallant barque.

And thy blood turn chill as winding sheet!

When danger, or wreck, or death were near;-
For thou hast been cas-, again and again,
On ihc stormy shores Of France and Spain,
And Europe scarcely owns coast,
On which thou hast not once been lost.
