Sea songs
By Whittier, John Greenleaf
What sings the brook? What oracle
Is in the pine-tree's organ swell?
What may the wind's low burden be?
The meaning of the moaning sea?
The hieroglyphics of the stars?
Or clouded sunset's crimson bars?
I vainly ask, for mocks my skill
Artist: Whittier, John Greenleaf
Year: 1850
