A Lyric Of Lone Seas.


A Lyric Of Lone Seas.
Our gallant ship leaps swiftly
Over the waves away;
With strident roar,
Her bow before
Kisses the salt sea spray.
Over the depths unfathomed,
over the sea s green caves,
List TO the song
So clear and strong
Sung by the loud-lipped waves.
Over the halls of coral
Whose pearly floors lie deep
Where white sea maiden,
With dreams o'erladen
Slumbers in breathless sleep.
Thou Ocean wide and voiceful,
Grim mystery shrouds thee Ger;
Thy tempeStS rave
Till mariners brave
Lie dead on the damp dark shore.
The white-plumed waves are moving
Like ordered files to war;
In mighty throng
They whirl along
To the dim horizons bar
Yon sea-bird poising dreamful
Thy secrets dread must know,
His Snowwhite breast
ON thine doth rest
When cradling pillows flow.
Gods power hovers DER thee:
His wonder work art thou:
Thy wave hosts stand
At His command
And peaceful beams thy brow
When sounds the ANGELS trumpet
And shake the affrighted skies.
Then shall the Lord
Fulfill His Word
Thy sheeted death shall rise.

This sum, according to promise, was
divided between Mr.. Bryan and the

paid to the respective national chair

cratic votes to SOC, 900 Populists and

the estimate Of votes made by MI.
