) 41 THE CLAN OF THE WATERS THE CLAN OF THE WATERS: A Celtic Legend MANANNAN, god of the winds and the sea, Flat on his back on the sands lay he, Trolling a song right merrily: "Come hither, come hither, thou little wind, " (Such and such was the song he sang) "Come hither; I've something for thee to find. " (Oh! how mellow the echoes rang!) "Find me a wave with a sea-green base, A rollicking, wandering, roisterous wave, With a crest o' foam, and a laughing face, A bit o' blue where the wind-fl...aws part, And a sunbeam pricking his homeless heart Ho! but I love the knave!" Manannan, god of the winds and the sea, Half of a summer's day sang he; Till the croon of the waves, and the warm sunshine, Had wooed him to sleep; and so, in fine, He slept beside the sea. Then came a man of the Island race, Seeking his love by cliff and scaur; And a mermaid rose to his embrace Up from the foam of the bar. Up from the foam of the bar came she, Clad in a robe of rainbow mist, 45 That her clammy tail he should not see : For he thought her a maid of the earth, did he ; And she waited to be kissed.
