in a second 'twas fearful to see Shot a huge sheet of flame from that fated canoe With a sudden, sharp sound, and nowhere on the sea Was a trace to be found of that terrible spree In the Siwash canoe of Chinook and Chinee. 45 THE SITKAN CHRISTMAS-TIDE. WITH INTERPOLATIONS BY THE POET'S YOUNGEST. Above Verstovia's sides, robed thick with fur, Like sides of tarnished beasts that thread its trails In search of food, yet feared to prowl afar, The chill, chaste arrow-head up rears its form. (The old... man's dead to wrong; the fur he thinks he sees On Mount Verstovia's sides ain't nothing but fir trees). Midst snowy peaks the Mount of Holy Cross Bears (in its breast its emblem deeply scarred, Uncovered still, and clear, as if the storms Had stayed their wrath in thought of times like these. (Of snow on mountain peaks it ain't no use to boast When here in town there ain't enough to make a coast). Lo ! as the tide its affluent Hood uprolls, Around the point the curling smoke appears, And swiftly shoreward steams the longed-for mail, Deep down with gifts and written words of love.
