Fair Gloucester
by Frank L. Cox


Fair Gloucester! 
What romance lies in yon quaint coves 
And long thy shores and wooded groves! 
What tragedies thy waters tell, 
When thru the storm tolls Norman's bell! 
We wander o'er thy moors and leas 
And sense the gentle ocean breeze; 
In fancy sail the summer sea 
And share thy fisher's life with thee.
