Sail on Three Bells forever
In grateful memory sail!
Ring on Three Bells of rescue
Above the wave and gale!
As thine in night and tempest
I hear the Master’s cry
And tossing through the darkness
The lights of God draw nigh.—Whittier.
The Semi-colon.
It may be generally stated that a Semi-colon is used in a complex sentence when a comma would not be a sufficient division.
