POPULAR SONG OF TUSCANY: 3, by                    
First Line: Passing across the billowy sea
Last Line: They said that I had given it thee
Subject(s): Sailing & Sailors


"Passing across the billowy sea,
I let, alas, my poor heart fall;
I bade the sailors bring it me;
They said they had not seen it fall.

I asked the sailors, one and two;
They said that I had given it you.
I asked the sailors, two and three;
They said that I had given it thee."
