Folly Beach

Description:

Photograph of palm trees on the beach at Folly. Several pieces of driftwood can be seen in the background. Paine has handwritten on reverse a portion of the poem by Laurence Hope, "Palm Trees By The Sea - Once, ere the thrill of the dawn, silvered the edge of the sea, I, who lay watching you rest, - Pale in the chill of the morn Found you still dreaming of me. Still by Love's fancies possessed. Ah, for those nights on the sand under the Palms by the Sea, For the strange dreams of those days Spent in the passionate land, For your youth given to me, I am your debtor always. India's Love Lyrics."
