Broken Raft Adventure.

A man on Nova Scotian Bay             On broken raft was borne away,             Right out on the open sea             Where the storm did blow so free,             No shelter from the wind or wave             He thought the gulf would be his grave,             He had no food life to sustain,             He laid him down there to remain,             What happened he did know no more,             But old man on Prince Edward's shore             Saw raft drifting near his shed             And thought the poor man was quite dead,             He called for help and soon they bore             His lifeless body to the shore,             But old man he did them desire             To place the body near the fire,             And wrap it up in blankets warm,             Which did act like to a charm,             And soon the breath it did return,             With gratitude his heart did burn,             To think he was again restored             Unto his friends whom he adored.
