DescriptionVoyage of the boat "PACIFIC' from San Francisco to Australia by Bernard Gilboy.
'Tis come at last, the hour to part,
And leave the land behind;
My glorious boat strains on the start,
Her flag flaps in the wind.
Then up, true friends and spirits brave,
And watch the swelling sail;
For, O, there's life upon the wave -
Hail, boundless ocean, hail! - J.S. Moore.
