第21章 THE “NORTHERN STAR”

A Tynemouth Ship

The Northern Star

Sail‘d over the bar Bound to the Baltic Sea;In the morning gray She stretched away:’Twas a weary day to me!

By the lighthouse rock I stray;And watch till darkFor the winged bark Of him that is far away.

Amidst the grassy graves:But all I hearIs the northwind drear,And all I see are the waves.

Is set afar!

Set in the Baltic Sea:

That holds my Love from me.
