Sunset Land 
O SuNseEv land, East Gloucester! 
Where we’ve roamed for many Summers, 
Thy wooded lanes and grand old rocks 
Daily allure new comers. 
O sunset land! O land of rose! - 
We sip much honey from thee, 
And thy Summer months are all too short 
Alack! Alas! for me. 
O sunset land of golden clouds! 
Thy weeks seem but a day, 
And on thy flowery carpets, 
Must we soon cease our play. 
O fairy land, East Gloucester! 
From the lullaby song of thy surf, 
In September we part with aching of heart 
And a tear we drop on thy turf.
