LESSON 15 A SONG OF CAPE LEEUWIN
A SONG OF CAPE LEEUWIN
E RNEST F AVENC (1845-1908) was an Australian poet and story writer.
Beaten by tempest and stormed by drift,
Steady I keep my post,
And laugh at the southern rollers long,
For I'm guard of the Southern Coast.
I watched the Dutchmen [1] on their way,
In the days of long ago,
But they set no foot on my rocky shore,
Where the billows break in snow [2] .
They gave me my name and sailed away,
And then the English came,
With their straining sails on their plunging ships,
And their flag flew out like flame.
—ERNEST FAVENC
