Oh, dim and wan came in the dawn, / And gloomy closed the day; / The killdee whistled among the weeds, / The heron flapped in the river reeds, / And the snipe piped far away.
At dawn she stood -- her dark gray hood / Flung back -- in the ferry-boat; / Sad were the eyes that watched him ride, / Her raider love, from the riverside, / His kiss on her mouth and throat.
