I saw like an army, shield and casque,
The breakers roll in the Roads of Basque.
"Kelpie, Kelpie!" Was it the wolves?
In the dusk of pines where night dissolves
To streamers and stars through the mountain gorge,
I heard the blast of a giant forge.
Then I knew the wind was awake from the North,
And the ocean riders were freed and forth.
Time, there is time (now gallop, my heart!)
