Without a mark, without a bound, It runneth the earth's wide regions round; It plays with the clouds; it mocks the skies; Or like a cradled creature lies. I'm on the sea! I'm on the sea! I am where I would ever be; With the blue above, and the blue below, And silence wheresoe'er I go; If a storm should come and awake the deep, What matter?

Stran 333 - Rob maintained them baith, and wi' tears in his ee, Said, " Jenny, oh ! for their sakes, will you marry me?" ' My heart it said na, and I looked for Jamie back ; But hard blew the winds, and his ship was a wrack : His ship...
