Explore "Watching the Needleboats at San Sabba" by James Joyce on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I heard their young hearts crying / Loveward above the glancing oar / And heard the prairie grasses sighing: / No more, return no more!
O hearts, O sighing grasses, / Vainly your loveblown bannerets mourn!
No more will the wild wind that passes / Return, no more return.
Trieste, 1912.
