From Mu he sailed with those who deemed him wise—
Our ancestor was he, thou dost surmise.”
The Princess, deeply touched, in silence heard,
With close attention, not to lose a word.
“To Oracle that ancestor gave ear—
Yet he for self had not a thought of fear—
And thus were many saved, of noble race
That otherwise had left on earth no trace,
With him for guide to this kind shore they came,
Renewing here the glory of their name.
