Show The Wind. The nliid went forth o'ir land and fn. Loud and free; roaming WHe leapt up to meet It: HUti-ly jilnts bowed down to greet It; While the walling ea And the fnreit'n murmured sign Joined tliu cry Of the wind thut wept o'er land n4 ilea. The wind that blew upon the aea Fierce and free. Cant the bark upon the ihore. Whence it vailed the night before Kull of hope and glee; . And the cry of puln and death Wan but a breath Through the wind that roared upon tha aea. The wind wnn whliperlng on the lea Tenderl) : nut the white rose felt It pass. And the fragile Ulki of graas Shook with fear to ee All her trembling petala hed, Aa It fled Bo gently by the wind upon the lea. Blow, thou wind, upon the sea Kiercn and free. And a yeutler merrnge send, VV'heie trail floweri anil gruiees bend, On the Hunuy lea; Knr thy bidding Mill la one, lie It dono In teiniernoH or wrath, on lutul or eal -Adrlnlde A, Proctor. |
