THE MESSAGE
“Oh, have you not a message, you who come over the sea?Have you not a message or word at all for me?”“I have sailed, sailed, sailed where the seas are green and blue,I’ve silver, gold and merchandise—but never a word for you.”“But did you see my love by any way you came?For if you saw my love, he must have spoke my name.”“Oh, yes, I saw your love—oh, yes, and he was gayRiding in his coach-and-six all on his birthday.”“But when you spoke of me, of me—oh! what was it he said?”“Oh, he never said a word at all, but turned away his head.”Margaret Sackville
