Across the Cliff the breezes OF the soft
Pacific blow,
And from the heights Of Sutro the
sparkling waves below
Glisten in the sunlight OF the dying sum-
mer day,
Painting fair the distant city. through
the rainbows Of the spray.
The opal clouds turn purple and the
whirling sesg-IFs fight
Far out across the water fades slowly
from the sight
The Golden Gate leads seward toward
the setting SUM-
And Ger the dark sierras the stars peep
one By one.
Through the stiffness OF the twilight
comes the murmur OF the sea
And the gentle zephyrs playing IA the
stately redwood tree
Sea and sky reveal new beauties IN the
mystic aftergiow
As across the Cliff the breezes OF the
soft Pacific blow.
