VOICES OF THE SEA.
What say tho waves, the joyous waves. As they tumble o'er and o'er, Tn mad hot haste by each other chased In a race to reach the shore? "We heard the storm fiend shriek afar. And we ran .ran, ran away, For fierce and old, but strong and bold. Ho roameth about for prey." What say the waves, the sad se& waves, as they slowly seek tho shore, Weary and spent, and torn and rent With conflict scarce passed o'er ? W e saw a ship, a gallant ship, Go down with a shudd'ring groan For the awful fate of its living freight. And we heard their piteous moan," Bhoda Arnev.
