PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND.
have wandered in search of some beautiful spot,
For a home that spoke gladness, where life might be free: at my greatest alluroment runs back to a. cot,
In the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the See.
have spoken of joys that are never found there,
And have thought I had got some one else to agree: at full soon I felt prone from my heart to declare, For the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the Sea.
have sorrowed to think that my heart should be torn, From my haven of childhood, where first bent my knee: ut memory turns to my little ones born,
In the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the Sea.
nd I’ve fondly attempted to prove what the place, ; Which had given me birth and a name was to me: ut alas I was sure to wind up with a trace,
Of the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the Sea.
nd ‘tis thus: let me turn wheresoever I may,
And as earnestly long for whatever I see:
can covet no greater delight than to stray,
. Through the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the Sea.
11 my wanderings forth then in other fair lands,
The Isle of Prince Edward shall still beckon me, mi in prayer for a. blessing, I’ll lift up my hands, For the Isle of Prince Edward that Gem of the Sea.
