A Song For A Parting

Title:     A Song For A Parting
Author: William Johnson Cory [More Titles by Cory]

I.
Flora will pass from firth to firth;
Duty must draw, and vows must bind.
Flora will sail half round the earth,
Yet will she leave some grace behind.

II.
Waft her, on Faith, from friend to friend,
Make her a saint in some far isle;
Yet will we keep, till memories end,
Something that once was Flora's smile.

[The end]
William Johnson Cory's poem: Song For A Parting
