Daisies Out At Sea	A
	-
	-
I	-
	-
These are the buds we bear beyond the surf	B
Enshrined in mould and turf	B
To take to fields far off a land's salute	C
Of high and vast repute	C
The Shakespeare land of every heart's desire	D
Whereof 'tis said the fame shall not expire	E
But shine in all men's thoughts as shines a beacon fire	D
	-
	-
II	-
	-
O bright and gracious things that seem to glow	F
With frills of winter snow	F
And little golden heads that know the sun	G
And seasons half begun	G
How blythe they look how fresh and debonair	H
In this their prison on the seaward air	H
On which no lark has soar'd to improvise a prayer	H
	-
	-
III	-
	-
Have they no memory of the inland grass	I
The fields where breezes pass	I
And where the full eyed children out at play	J
Make all the land so gay	J
Have they no thought of dews that like a tear	H
Were shed by Morning on the Night's cold bier	K
In far off English homes belov'd by all men here	K
	-
	-
IV	B
	-
O gems of earth O trinkets of the spring	L
The sun your gentle king	L
Who counts your leaves and marshals ye apace	M
In many a sacred place	M
The godlike summer sun will miss ye all	N
For he has foster'd all things great and small	N
Yea all good things that live on earth's revolving ball	N
	-
	-
V	B
	-
But when on deck he sees with eye serene	O
The kirtles tender green	O
And fair fresh faces of his hardy flowers	P
How will he throb for hours	P
And wish the lark the laureate of the light	Q
Were near at hand to see so fair a sight	Q
And chant the joys thereof in words we cannot write	Q
	-
	-
VI	B
	-
Oh I have lov'd ye more than may be told	R
And deem'd it fairy gold	R
And fairy silver that ye bear withal	N
Ye are so soft and small	N
I weep for joy to find ye here to day	J
So near to Heaven and yet so far away	J
In our good ocean ship whose bows are wet with spray	J
	-
	-
VII	B
	-
Ye are the cynosure of many eyes	S
Bright blue as English skies	S
The sailors' eyes that scan ye in a row	F
As if intent to show	F
That this dear freight of mould and meadow flower	D
Which sails the sea in sunshine and in shower	D
Is England's gift of love which storms shall not devour	D
	-
	-
VIII	B
	-
She sends ye forth in sadness and in joy	T
As one may send a toy	T
To children's children bred in other lands	U
By love abiding hands	U
And day by day ye sail upon the foam	V
To call to mind the sires' and mothers' home	V
Where babes now grown to men were wont of yore to roam	V
	-
	-
IX	U
	-
In England's name in Shakespeare's and in ours	U
Who bear these trusted flowers	U
There shall be heard a cheer from many throats	U
A rush and roar of notes	U
As loud and proud as those of heavenward birds	U
And they who till the ground and tend the herds	U
Will read our thoughts therein and clothe the same in words	U
	-
	-
X	U
	-
For England's sake for England once again	W
In pride and power and pain	X
For England aye for England in the girth	Y
Of all her joy and worth	Y
A strong and clear outspoken undefined	Z
And uncontroll'd wild shout upon the wind	Z
Will greet these winsome flowers as friends of human kind	Z
