Of one wild feeling, till it rose within

Into the form of death, and nature felt

The light of the immortal being melt

Into its happier home beyond the sea,

And moon, and stars, into eternity!

The sun broke through his dungeon, long enthrall’d

By dismal clouds, and on the emerald

Of the great living sea was blazing down

To gift the lordly billows with a crown

Of diamond and silver. From his cave
