Up from old ocean climbs the orb of day.

Then the drear hatchway morning hands disclose,

And point the sufferers to a change of woes.

Soon as the gorged cell of dim disease

Opes the sick passage to a quicker breeze,

From the rank maw, belched up in morbid stream,

The hot mist thickens in the side-long beam;

When from the noisome cave, the drooping crowd,

In fetter'd pairs, break through the misty cloud.

With keen despair they eye the morning's glow,
