THE BREEZE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THROUGH THEE THE OCEAN KNOWS
Last Line: OF LIFE THAT CANNOT DIE.
Subject(s): WIND;

Through thee the ocean knows
The fragrance of the rose;
And inlands, far away,
The blossom of the spray.

Through thee, to every wave
A whisper of the grave;
And to each grave a sigh
Of life that cannot die.
