All weltering there, half-buried in the sand.

The foam rushed through them. On their rotted prows

And weed-grown poops the sea-gulls perched and screamed;

And all around them with an eerie cry

An icy wind was blowing.

It would seem

Like the Last Judgment, should there ever be

A resurrection of the ships we saw

Lying there dead. These things we saw and live.

And now your picture smiles at all of these.
