Scene from a Cottage Window
The waves Were tinged with golden, As they lapped n/bon the shore. They seemed to murmur softly. Of songs you ct heard before. The tul in the \owhai. Rang out its bell-like note. Mingling with the Waters, Soft and remote.
The little ship mooed onward. Fanned gently by the breeze. Her sails a-billowing whiteness, She rode at perfect ease. On the peaceful Waitemata, I saw this lovely scene. From my little cottage window, A memory eoer green.-■ —Original, by Rosemary Grice (13).
