Struck by heavy land-breeze, far at sea.
Ruffle the thousand broad sheets of the land,
Filled with the peoples breath of potency.

From him who strikes, who rules, who

Many within the hour their grave to make,
Many to live, far in the heart of things.

The gold-bright seeds of loved and loving

By whose perpetual hand, each day supplied,
Leaps to new life the empires heart of youth.

NV daughters are all charming girls,
Few mothers have such luck.

And nv second so resembles her
Most people think them twins.

She's quite 3 pattern witei

Few men lead such lifel
She neer had married mortal man
Had not he won her heart;
And INV second darling's Just the same;
THEY'RE seldom known apart.
Her husband oft has pressed my hand,
While tears stood in his eyes,
And said, "you brought my Susan up
With you the honor lies"
To make her domestic wife,

And my second is domestic too
NV system was the same.
Now, do you know, I've often thought
The eldest of the two,

And her you'll meet to-day.
