“Twilight and evening bell,”
1
Twilight and Evening Bell,
And after that the dark,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face,
When I embark

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes
By the deep sea, and music in its roar
I love not man the less, but nature more.
3
Twilight and Evening Bell,
And pre-clear call for me,
And may there be no moaning at the Bar,
When I put out to sea.(continues on next page)
