Excerpt from A Beautiful City, Set Down by the Sea And murmur of waters all the day long; Where weary ones come, and ever grow strong, Where gladness supreme pervadeth the throng; A beautiful city, set down by the sea.rom pinnacled roof, so graceful and fair, Banners so many, are farming the air; And flag of the land all people may share, Guardeth this city in summer-time fair.
