Text Appearing Before Image:
29 XXX. AT SEA AND ON SHORE. Now a blessing on the moonlight, Prayed one who lone and longBy a watchful lamp at midnight Had crooned a cradle song.Below the cliff-perched cottage The surf-beat rose and fell,As babys breath and mothers song, AYent with its sink and swell. For in yon silvery shimmer That falls across the sea,I see his boat-sails glimmer, And I know he thinks of me. Now a blessing on the lamplight, Prayed one who watched the lineOf float on float, from a sailing boat That tracked the mackerels shine.Beneath the yawls black quarter The sea-thud went and came,And ebon fell her shadow On the moons white wake of flame.£ For in yon lamplight, fleeting And faint although it be,A wifes and babys greeting Eeach to me oer the sea.
