Avail not; to look round, and only see

The mountain wave, incumbent with its weight

Of bursting waters o'er the reeling bark;—

Oh, God, this is indeed a dreadful thing!

And he who hath endured the horror once

Of such an hour, doth never hear the storm

Howl round his home, but he remembers it,

And thinks upon the suffering mariner.
