Others there are that make their home

Where the white billows roar and foam

Around the o’erhanging rock;

Fearless they skim the angry wave,

Or, shelter’d in their sea-beat cave,

The tempest’s fury mock.

Where Afric’s burning realm expands,

The ostrich haunts the desert-sands,

Parch’d by the blaze of day;

The swan, where northern rivers glide,
