Have swarmed in the upper blue

And the glow and shine of the drenching brine

Like white fire burns me through.

I haunt as a ghost the rock-girt coast

Where the bell-buoy loudly rings

And the breakers leap to the mighty sweep

Of the night-wind’s sable wings.

I shake and moan, I creak and groan,

In the wrathful tempest when

The old sea raves and digs deep graves
