FUGITIVES, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Tonight, far inland from the sea
Last Line: The shaken reed, the scattered spray.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Wind


Tonight, far inland from the sea,
The winds, a frightened legion, flee
With wailings of distress;
While cataracts from many a steep
Plunge headlong, foaming to the deep,
To crown their restlessness.
Anon, where each has passed away.
The shaken reed, the scattered spray.
