A SONG OF THE SEA.

for the roar of the sounding sea
xAnd its bounding, pounding thunder
AS 1t TumbleS and rolls, and fills all our
souls
With feelings of awe and of wonder;
And Q for the dash, and the flash, and
the crash
OF its waters aWhirl in the buster
When the billowS are black in the thun-
der storms track
Or are lit with the thunder lights lus-
ter!
For I'm far from the sea, and I long,
long to be
Once again on the back of the ocean,
And to feel all it's power when the thun-
der clouds lower
And to watch it's tumultuouS motion:
To see the light shine on the leaden sea
line,
And to list to the seas hollow singing,
When the waters spit wrath in the thun-
ders black path
And the winds in the canvas are ring
ing!
o better one hour of life full of power,
0 better an hour on the ocean,
Than year in the calm and the shade
of the palm
That the winds scarcely stir into mo-
ton.
For action is best, and this thing they
call rest
o it wearies me, stifes, and kills me:
And ( yearn for the sea and the wild
life and free.
For its music inspirits and thrills me!
