ALASKAN BALLADRY. – III

Оглавление

(Skans in Love.)

I am like the wretched seal

Wounded by a barbed device —

Helpless fellow! how I bellow,

Floundering on the jagged ice!


Sitka's beauty is the steel

That hath wrought this piteous woe:

Yet would I rather die

Than recover from the blow!


Still I'd rather live than die,

Grievous though my torment be;

Smite away, but, I pray,

Smite no victim else than me!
