Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
To Him the God of storms - and prays that He Will guard her only one upon the sea. Down to the beach the rough waves pour Their noisy flood with loud and deafening roar; The wild sea birds scream to the fitful gale, And the winds re-echo the ceaseless wail! At length is heard the sound of a minute gun, And the mother thinks of her only son With a piercing scream, from her prayer-bent knee She starts and cries O God - a gun at sea. With frantic haste down to the shore she speeds, And there at once her greatest sorrow reads.
