Bishops words. There is a strong
meaning to to the personal liberty
embodied in them.

The port is near, the bells I hear, the

While follow eyes the steady keel, the

Where ON the deck my Captain lies,

Rise up-for the flag is fiung-for

For you bouquets and ribboned
wreaths-for you the shores a

For you they call, the swaying mass,
their eager faces turning;
Here, Captain! Dear Father,
This arm beneath your head!
Ii is some dream that on the deck
You've fallen cold and dead.
Ny Captain does not answer, his lips
are pale and still,
Ny father does not feel my arm, he
has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchored safe and sound
its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship

Exult. o shores, and ring, o bells
But |, with mournful tread,
