A DREAM OF THE SEA,

A farmer lad in his prairie home
Lay dreaming of the sea;
He ne'er had seen it, but well he knew
Ess pictured image and heavenly hue;
md he dreamed ne swept DER its waters
blue.
With the winds blowing free,
With the winds so fresh and free.
He woke. and he said "The day will come
When that shall be truth TO me-
But as years swept by him he always found
That his feet were clogged and his hands
were bound,
Till at last he lay ina narrow mould.
Afar from the sobbing sea,
The sorrowing, sobbing sea.
Oh, many there are on the plains tonight
That dream Of voyage to be,
And have said in their souls, THE day will
come
When my bark shall sweep through the drifts
OF foam"
But their eyes grow dim and their lips grow
dumb,
Afar from the tossing sen,
The turbulent tossing sea.
