Strana 112 - THREE fishers went sailing away to the West, Away to the West as the sun went down; Each thought on the woman who loved him the best, And the children stood watching them out of the town; For men must work, and women must weep, And there's, little to earn, and many to keep, Though the harbor bar be moaning.
Strana 114 - Three corpses lay out on the shining sands In the morning gleam as the tide went down, And the women are weeping and wringing their hands For those who will never come home to the town ; For men must work, and women must weep, And the sooner it's over, the sooner to sleep ; And good-bye to the bar and its moaning.
Strana 113 - Though storms be sudden, and waters deep, And the harbor bar be moaning. Three corpses lay out on the shining sands In the morning gleam as the tide went down, And the women are weeping and wringing their hands For those who will never come...
Strana 116 - By none of us are made; We never leave the blinds unclosed, To let the curtains fade. The ink we never spill, the boots That lying round you see Are not our boots; they all belong To Mr.

Strana 113 - And the night-rack came rolling up ragged and brown. But men must work, and women must weep, Though storms be sudden, and waters deep, And the harbor bar be moaning. Three corpses lay out on the shining sands In the morning gleam as the tide went down...
Strana 125 - Why stand you there, Sweet maiden fair, With eyes upon the sea, Forgetting play To gaze all day On ocean rolling free ? 2. Have you a ship From foreign trip Now coming up the bay, That brings you gold For treasures sold In countries far away ? 3. Ah, there's a line Of black smoke fine Upon the distant sky ! She sees a speck The ocean fleck Beneath the smoke on high. 4. It grows and grows Until she knows It is the steamer due. Her little heart Beats wild its part As comes the ship in view.
Strana 28 - She was delighted ; but she saw some little naiTow white teeth, and she said, " Oh ! he will bite ! but I do want him ! What shall I do ? " May's mother got a nice starch-box, with a picture on one end. She took a gimlet and bored a row of holes along its sides. Then she put in some wires, and, as one end had a slide, the cage was ready. Bridget put Bunny in the box, and May clapped her hands for joy. He soon had some milk in a saucer from May's tea-set, a little pile of corn, and some cotton for...
Strana 29 - CAGE. 13 could not see his thoughts when he kissed her, or she would not have done what she did after he was gone. She was watching Bunny a long time that morning. She was sure he looked out with sad eyes between the wires. He pushed and tugged at them so hard that May grew very uneasy herself. Her mother was watching her from behind the blinds. Pretty soon May came in and stood by her mother. She looked down, and she was pulling her fingers. Her mother knew what this meant. She was "making up her...
Strana 27 - If you walk along on k in the spring, you will sometimes hear rustle, and see two bright eyes, — round and black, and shiny as little beads. May has a large gray cat. He sees these round black eyes quicker than a child would. His name is Spring Velvet. One day Spring Velvet was stealing softly along the bank. He heard a noise and made a sudden dash, and in a moment he was trotting home to Bridget with a striped chipmunk in his mouth ! Bridget knew Spring Velvet. She knew he did not care for mice...
