Poem by William Ernest Henley


Echoes. 13. Bring Her Again, O Western Wind


Bring her again, O western wind,
   Over the western sea:
Gentle and good and fair and kind,
   Bring her again to me!

Not that her fancy holds me dear,
   Not that a hope may be:
Only that I may know her near,
   Wind of the western sea.

1875
