Chapter 24

To bed with busy thoughts; the following dayBore us expectant into Boston Bay;With dome and steeple on the yellow skies,Upon the left we watched with curious eyesThe Puritan great Mother City rise.Among the islets, winding in and round,The great ship moved to her appointed ground.We bade adieu, shook hands and went ashore:I and my friend have seen our friends no more.

To bed with busy thoughts; the following day

Bore us expectant into Boston Bay;

With dome and steeple on the yellow skies,

Upon the left we watched with curious eyes

The Puritan great Mother City rise.

Among the islets, winding in and round,

The great ship moved to her appointed ground.

We bade adieu, shook hands and went ashore:

I and my friend have seen our friends no more.
