Henry Lawson

“ I'd sail with money, or sail without! —
If your love be forced from home,
And you dare enough, and your heart be stout,
The world is your own to roam.
I've never a love that can sting my pride,
Nor a friend to prove untrue ”

“ The night comes down on a restless deck, —
Grim cliffs — and — The Open Sea!
