POETRY.
In the City Of the Sea.
by JOAQUIN MILLER.


oh high-set lion of sweet Saint Mark.
There are seas TO the left and seas to the ri9ht,
Front and aback there is nothing but hood,
Nothing bnt pillows and nothing but night,
And white-blown caps that are tossed and curled,
City afloat. thou art surely an ark,
And here about us are beasts IN stud
Creatures and beasts that come and go
Enough. and wicked enough, know,
To populate and devour the world.
Sphinx-like lion, art prophet or what?
Nav, Noah, or prophet art thou, sainr Mark;
But king of the desert or slave of the sea,
Whatever thou art, or what shall be,
What thou art now or what art not,
In city at sea, in ark, or bark, 4
Lead us and land us on some sweet shore,
Some new washed summit, where olives are green,
And never the vsage of sorrow is seen
Forever and ever and evermore.
Lead us and land us, oh! that were best,
To the Isles of the Blest, by the Isles of Greece,
And on'and beyond where the great moons face
Bends low and large to the golden grain
The whole year through; fand death nor pain
Nor any hard thought has name or place
To the land of olives, the land of peace,
To the land of love, to the land of rest.
Lead us and land us, for that were best,
A home on the seas were never home,
Floating in floods of salt sea foam
And seeking for what? For the Golden Fleece,
For the land of Giants, the sea-lost moon,
Gates of He'll, or of Hercules,
Or the land of eternal afternoon?
o, wrinkled old lion that tops Saint Mark,
Lo!fhere are the doves, sthis is the ark,
But where is the olive and where is the peace,
Where is the land and where is the rest?
