THE PATHWAY OF THE SEAS
(By John 8. Mcdroa'rty. in West
Coast Mngazlne, Los Angeles.)
Old was tho pathway of tiio seas
When, from tho land-worn trail,
The swart Phoenician to the brnozo
Flrnt flune his made sail;
014 wan tho moon-drawn tldo'si de
al ro
With Iuro of harbors won,
Seforo tho shifts Wore sped from
Tyro,
With Bpolls of Dabylon.
Old nro tho sons, tho sails and tilt,
Tho Btars and singing tldo,
Tho slron'fl song and gray gull's tall
On wators stretching wldo;
Old aro tho ahlpa as tho first strong;
iroo
Tho primal forests grew,
But 'J ilea nnd stars and running 8js
Aro yot forovor now.
Cray woa tho pathway of tho eeai
Before a kool was lain
Long 'oro tho datintlou OonoOM
Clove Ma and sky for Spnln;
Twaa bright with Joy and dark with
wrath
'Ere Egypt hailed a sail,
And none knew when tho seaward
path
First 'leaped tho larid-worrt trnll,
'TIs many a harbor thoy havo found,
The sun-brownod sailors all.
,
Mnto first the aJilps wont outward
bound,
Lured of the watodor call.
Around 'the swinging world thoy
sped,
And with tho winds thoy fared
Past troplo Isles and Ico-lockod head,
Till all tho seas woro dared,
And tlioro was ono who, wandering
far,
Sailed long with sturdy keel,
And (law A'o sun nnd beckoning ttnr
Tho bnunor of Cnstlloj
Beyond tho gleam of hlllod Azoros
Ho fared with sails flung" froo,
To win, at 'last, tho goldon shoros
Thut guard tho Humot Sea.
