The si.,en Song.


1 heard 1t III ti-s happy 1s.es
Blown down the oying day.
The summer song whose lit beSuiies
The wanderer to stay:
It followed in the shore winds breath,
The magic stin was strong,
Although the note of change and death
Has touched the Sirens song.
They lure not now to new delights
Beyond what life has known.
To happy days and happy nights
In summers slumber zone.
"Come hither, hither, come and dream
OF years dead long age,
Until the earth and ocean seem
The world that poets know.
"Come back and dwell with hopes lonl
dead
And what will never be!
Avert thine eyes and turn thine head !.
From the worlds way oSer sea!
'For here are drowsy dreams to cheat
The eyes that else would weep.
And inland seas to battle the feet,
And quiet wales for Sleep
Pass, phantom music, pass awayl
The purple isles gro- dim;
The glamour Of the dying day
Fades on the oceans rim.
Enchantress of the messy caves,
Sleep by thy drowsy streams.
The cradle of the rocking waves
Is worth a world of dreams!
So be the haven near or far,
Blow winds and freshen seal
The morrow's hope, the morning star,
The living world for me!
