Yon sail goes like a spirit seeking you.

I heard a trumpet from beyond the moon,

Piercing ice-blue gulfs of air,

Cry down the secret waters of the world,

Under the far sea-streams, to summon there

The foundered ships, the splendid ships, the lost ships.

In their ribb’d ruin and age-long sleep they heard,

Where each had found her shadowy burial-bed,

Clutched in blind reef, shoal-choked or shingle-bound;

Heard from betraying isles and capes of dread
