Dash down yon cup of Samian wine!
“AS SHIPS, BECALMED AT EVE.”
As ships, becalm’d at eve, that lay
With canvas drooping, side by side,
Two towers of sail at dawn of day
Are scarce long leagues apart descried;
When fell the night, upsprung the breeze, 5
And all the darkling hours they plied,
Nor dreamt but each the self-same seas
