The Isle of PortlandThe star-filled seas are smooth to-night From France to England strown; Black towers above the Portland light The felon-quarried stone.On yonder island, not to rise, Never to stir forth free, Far from his folk a dead lad lies That once was friends with me.Lie you easy, dream you light, And sleep you fast for aye; And luckier may you find the night Than ever you found the day.
