[Illustration: The Wreck of the Hesperus] [Illustration] It was the schooner Hesperus That sailed the wintry sea; And the skipper had taken his little daughter To bear him company.
[Illustration] Blue were he
...r eyes as the fairy-flax, Her cheeks like the dawn of day, And her bosom white as the hawthorn buds That ope in the month of May.
    The skipper he stood beside the helm, His pipe was in his mouth, And he watched how the veering flaw did blow The smoke now west, now south.
[Illustration] [Illustration] Then up and spake an old sailor, Had sailed to the Spanish Main, "I pray thee, put into yonder port, For I fear a hurricane.
[Illustration] "Last night the moon had a golden ring, And to-night no moon we see!" The skipper he blew a whiff from his pipe, And a scornful laugh laughed he.
