In what dim, half imagined place

Does the Titanic lie to-day,

Too deep for tide, too deep for spray,

In night and saltiness and space?

Oh, quiet must the sea-floor be!

And very still must be the gloom

Where in each well-appointed room

The splendor rots unto the sea.

Through crannies in the shattered decks

The sea-weed thrusts pale finger-tips,
