    Casuarina to my soul: | |   Beneath it we have played; though years may roll‚ |         25 | O sweet companions‚ loved with love intense‚ | |   For your sakes‚ shall the tree be ever dear. | | Blent with your images‚ it shall arise | | In memory‚ till the hot tears blind mine eyes! | |   What is that dirge-like murmur that I hear |         30 | Like the sea breaking on a shingle-beach? | | It is the tree’s lament‚ an eerie speech‚ | | That haply to the unknown land may reach. |
