UOTH the cedar to the reeds and rushes, ' Water-grass, you know not what I do; Know not of my storms, nor of my hushes. And - J know not you.' QuotJi the reeds and rushes, ' Wind! 0 walcen! lireathe, 0 wind, and set our answer free, For we have no voice, of you forsaken, For the cedar tree.' Quoth the earth at midnight to the ocean, ' Wilderness of water, lost to view, Nought you are to me but sounds of motion; I am nought to you.' Quoth the ocean, ' Dawn! 0 fairest, clearest, Touch me with thy golden fingers bland; For I have no smile till thou appearest For the lo-uoly land.'

' But still he answered ' Nay.' 283 Then stepp'd two mariners down the street, With looks of grief and fear: ' Now, if Winstanl Books, History~~General, Story-Of-Doom-And-Other-Poems~~Jean-Ingelow, 999999999, A Story Of Doom And Other Poems, Jean Ingelow, 1116222612, BiblioBazaar, , , , , BiblioBazaar<
