Explore "Ballads of Lost Haven, A Book of the Sea" by Bliss Carman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
On the long slow heave of a lazy sea, / To the flap of an idle sail, / The Nancy's Pride went out on the tide; / And the skipper stood by the rail.
All down, all down by the sleepy town, / With the hollyhocks a-row / In the little poppy gardens, / The sea had her in tow.
