SEA SONG.
(Portland Troascript.)
Boiling along on the merry sCL
Af day, we sail and soil,
Our ship liko a laughing, living thing,
Gses rasing with the gale
At moru w see the sun to riad ́ ́
Take a warrior fair and bure,
And he throws a million spears of gald
Down on the darksowa were.
At night when co the distant lannâ
A calia holds rale and hili,
We that are on the merry sea,
O, we go rolling still
We hang a light up in the mast
int
Like a spark on the ocean blue,
And a'ara hang out their lights abore,
For they are rolling 100.
And a merry song or twò, we toss
To the atárs that roll an free, And only laugh when the song is lost
In thunder of the sea.
Siz ship and star go rolling on, Each to a different shore; Aml each awaits the elf same voico
When they must roll nò more.
