“As flowers beneath her footstep waken, / As stars from night's loose hair are shaken, / As waves arise when loud winds call, / Thoughts sprung where'er that step did fall.”

“'Where'er the sun shakes out his spears, and the lonesome waters mirror up the moon, where'er storms roll, and Heaven's painted bows arch in the sky - from the pure North clad in snows, across the middle spaces of the world, to where the amorous South, lying like a bride upon her blue couch of seas, breathes in sighs made sweet with the odour of myrtles - there shall thy power pass and thy dominion find a home.'”

“And where'er ye go That we'll never know”
