The river flowing.
Far above in the deeps of blue,
A great bird tapped his wings and flew,
And mellow the echoes answered to
His tuneless screaming.
The sullen river seemed to creep
Adown its channel broad and deep,

Floating upon the iireless stream.
Touched by the red lights lingering beam,

Fading and dying upon face,
About which shadows thrOnged apace;
Past hope, pastfear, past strife, no space

Unmindful of the stream or shore,

And tired hands folded listlessly,
Through niIts and night swept out TO sea,
