while he himself is known from here to

where he sat between two young ladies,
The ladies talked to him very loudly,
and rather to his annoyance, but he said
nothing, Finally one Of them fairly

And some to the lands of the Orient 20,

The white sails flicker and CLEAN,
And the ship rides gayly over the bar;
But the night is black, with never star,
And my heart is sad with its dreaml
Only tho dim Of the seas far strand,
Only the dark see;
But he left me here, by the trodden sand,
With only rose in my little hand,
And never word for mel
