Were Queen supc7 her throne !!
No voice to break she calm,
And bat the west winds breath,
Soft, over beds Of balm,
That make sleep akin to death

That sounds from younger height.
It breaks the liquid air.
Yet soothes the wound it makes;
And though it breathes of care,

Hush! DER the wave it swellsy
And the waters seem to sleep;
A murmer only tells
OF the depth within the deep;
And the west wind, late in play,
Now droops upon the beach,

Of strain it could not reach
Alas! for the your heart,
