Similar demonstrations occurred in

They may languish early and late for him,
The bird on the wing is a mate for him,
And the hawk on the hunt goes free
There's the brown and gloom Of the forest track.
Where the deer go ghostly by;
There's the starving camp and the dead weight

The moose hide lodge or the trapper's shack,
And VOLTS fierce life in the pine woods black,
And the freedom of the sky.
There's the plunging deck and the jarring screw

Or the topsails drenched with the gulf stream

And the sharp, salt breath Of the landess blue,
Where a man forgets his home.
