Show THE SKY SQUADRON. Up from tho south they bore, Smooth was the sea and blue; Hero was a friendly shore Home and a harbor too. Dark wore their hulls! save ona Admiral's ship that came Wearing tho golden sun-Flagship sun-Flagship of lire and llame. Sudden a shrieking gale Swept o'er the azuro track, Turning buth ship and snll Into a demon black, Nearer and nearer Hark! Even tho wind seemed muto Out of tho squadron dark Rumbled the long salute. Home 1b tho cruiser .fl.?t; Never It sails In vain; Aftor tho dayn of heat, Now for llic cooling rain! |
