SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 9 by BLISS CARMAN

First Line: DEAR, WHAT HAST THOU TO DO
Last Line: JOYANCE AND SPRING?
Subject(s): HAPPINESS;
Dear, what hast thou to do
With the cold moon,
Free to range, fleet to change,
So far and soon?
Dear, what hast thou to do
With the hoar sea?
Love alone is his own
Eternity.
Dear, what hast thou to do
With anything
In the wide world beside
Joyance and spring?
