In sorrow o’er the deep.

Still from his noonday height,

The sun looks down in light;

Along the trackless realms of space,

The stars still run their midnight race;

The same green valleys smile, the same rough shore

Still echoes to the same wild ocean’s roar:—

But where the bristling night-wolf sprang

Upon his startled prey,

Where the fierce Indian’s war-cry rang,
