Excerpt from The Sounding Sea, and Other PoemsSpeak! Though I tremble at thy voice, Speak, mighty force! Man doth rejoice To hear thee. If thou hast thy faults, Be not ashamed, though Rumor halts To ridicule thy choice.Sad sounding Sea! The whispering wind With apprehension is resigned, And surely from all envy void, Beholds thee consciously employed, Soothing a sadder mind.Ohl is it wrong that I should come, To mock thee in thy cavern home, With simple song and rueful rhyme, Both slaves to custom born of time, And both more burdensome?Hath my devotion been too plain, Too narrow, or too much for gain? Am I a child of fickle art, That I can never lose my heart Without losing it in vain?About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
