GOOD WISHES.
35
Long will its memories linger sweet
Of flowers and shells, and mules so fleet,
In our far-off and cold retreat,
Yucatan, my Yucatan.
"May churches, schools, and enterprise,
Yucatan, my Yucatan,
Gladden thy golden sands and skies,
Yucatan, my Yucatan.
May railroads, built by Palmer Co.;
Carry great crowds to Progresso,
And Parish into parishes grow,
In Yucatan, my Yucatan!"
