Sunset.
A tract of light divides on either hand
The darkness of the clouds and of the land,
Low-stretched across the sky, like yellow sand;
The darkness of the clouds and of the land,
Low-stretched across the sky, like yellow sand;
Like yellow sand upon the billowy shore;
Of all the sunset there remains no more,
The sand is threatened by the breaker's roar.
Of all the sunset there remains no more,
The sand is threatened by the breaker's roar.
