Three Fishers ;.
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII you please publish the poem
Three Fishers PUPIL.
Very glad to accommodate you:
THREE FISHERS.
Three fishers went sailing out into
the west
Out into the west. as the sun went
down,
Each thought of the woman who
loved him best,
And the children stood watching
them out of the town:
For men must work, and women
must weep,
And there's little to earn, and many
to keep,
Though the harbor-bar be moan
ing.
Three wives sat up in the light
house tower,
And they trimmed the lamps as
the sun went down;
They looked at the squall, and they
looked at the shower.
And the night-rack came rolling
up ragged and brown;
But men must work, and women
must weep,
Though storms be sudden, and
waters deep,
And the harbor-bar be moaning.
Three corpses lie out in the shining
sands
In the morning CLEAN, as the tide
goes down.
And the women are weeping and
wringing their hands,
For those who will never come
home to the town;
For men must work, and women
must weep,
And the sooner it's over; the sooner
to sleep,
And good-by to the bar and it's
moaning.
Charles Kingsley.
