California: Its History and Romance (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from California: Its History and Romance

And they came in the lure of the song she sang, With their white sails, to her feet.

So, like a mother with bursting breast, She claimed the brood of the seas, And the flaming lips Of her wild love pressed Upon them, about her knees; She crooned them to sleep on her bosom fair, Where their happy hearts were lain, And they laughed in her eyes that wrapped them there, Like their old, warm skies of Spain.
