SONGS IN MINOR KEYS.
SONG.
OH! sad—thrice sad was the morning
I sailed away from my love,
Tho' no cloud, nor wind gave warning
Of grief, from the sky above.

But sad was the wind in its sobbing
When the ship cleft the harbor's wave;
And sad was my heart in its throbbing
As I lay all the day by her grave.
