WHEN IN SOME COVE I LIE, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Seaward with it
Subject(s): Peace; Contentment


When in some cove I lie,
A placid lake at rest
Scanning the distant hills,
A murmur from the west,
And gleam of thousand rills
Which gently swell my breast,
Announce the friendly thought,
And in one wave sun-lit
I'm softly brought
Seaward with it.
