    "O Mary, go and call the cattle home,
    And call the cattle home,
    And call the cattle home,
    Across the sands o' Dee;"
    The western wind was wild and dank wi' foam
    And all alone went she.

Yet I will look upon thy face again,
My own romantic Bronx, and it will be
A face more pleasant than the face of men.

A well remembered form in each old tree
And hear a voice long loved in thy wild minstrelsy.

Two ways the rivers
Leap down to different seas, and as they roll
Grow deep and still, and their majestic presence
Becomes a benefaction to the towns
They visit, wandering silently among them,
Like patriarchs old among their shining tents.
