Eh! what is this?—Where are they, at all?

Where are they, and where are their tiny commodities?

Well! as I live!” He looks blank as a wall,

Poor Ferryman! Round him, and round him he gazes,

But only gets deeplier lost in the mazes

Of utter bewilderment! All, all are gone—

And he stands alone,

Like a statue of stone,

In a doldrum of wonder. He turns to steer,

And a tinkling laugh salutes his ear
