75
THE STREAM FROM THE SEA DIVIDED,
FROM THE ITALIAN.
The stream from the sea dividedBathes the valley and mountain;
Goeth, a traveller,
In the river;
Goeth, a prisoner,
In the fountain;
Murmureth, sigheth ever,
Till, at length, it turns to the sea;
To the sea that gave it being,
And fed that being duly;
And where, after long delaying
Of weariful, tedious straying,
It hopeth at rest to be.
