7582 John Townsend Trowbridge 1827- ? John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:7582
AUTHOR:John Townsend Trowbridge (1827– ?)
QUOTATION:Darius was clearly of the opinion
That the air is also man’s dominion,
And that, with paddle or fin or pinion,
      We soon or late
      Shall navigate
The azure, as now we sail the sea.
