BOATS SAIL ON THE RIVERS.

BOATS SAIL ON THE RIVERS.

Boats sail on the rivers,And ships sail on the seas,But clouds that sail across the skyAre prettier far than these.There are bridges on the rivers,As pretty as you please;But the bow that bridges heavenAnd overtops the trees,And builds a road from earth to sky,Is prettier far than these.Christina G. Rossetti.

Boats sail on the rivers,And ships sail on the seas,But clouds that sail across the skyAre prettier far than these.There are bridges on the rivers,As pretty as you please;But the bow that bridges heavenAnd overtops the trees,And builds a road from earth to sky,Is prettier far than these.Christina G. Rossetti.

Boats sail on the rivers,And ships sail on the seas,But clouds that sail across the skyAre prettier far than these.

Boats sail on the rivers,

And ships sail on the seas,

But clouds that sail across the sky

Are prettier far than these.

There are bridges on the rivers,As pretty as you please;But the bow that bridges heavenAnd overtops the trees,And builds a road from earth to sky,Is prettier far than these.

There are bridges on the rivers,

As pretty as you please;

But the bow that bridges heaven

And overtops the trees,

And builds a road from earth to sky,

Is prettier far than these.
