Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Ballads, Lyrics and Sonnets: from the Poetic Works of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

It fell to earth, I knew not where ; F or, so swiftljp it flew, the sight Could not follow it in its flight, I breathed a song into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For who has sight so keen and strong That it can follow the flight of song? Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
