Where sleep the haggard Spirits of the storm,

Wild dreary are the schistine[11] rocks around

Encircled by the wave, where to the breeze

The haggard Cormorant shrieks. And far beyond

Are seen the cloud-like Islands, grey in mists.[12]

By busy Man, and no one wanders there

Save he who follows Nature,—he who seeks

Amidst thy crags and storm-beat rocks to find

The marks of changes teaching the great laws
