Description
Excerpt from The Wanderer: And Other Poems
Of manhood's stronger years, still everywhere I stray, my thoughts seem like the waves to be, As I had drunk the waters' Spirit there, Like him who sung the ocean's majesty, The bard of nature's realm, or earth, or heaven, or sea.
His song I echo now to voiceless thrills, As traveler on every ocean's brink In storm or calm, its finished fitness fills With wonder at the mind, whose power could link Such thoughts in words as hushed the world to think! Even they return to gaze upon the deep, Who from the wreck-strewn shore were won't to shrink, When they have learned the lay, sung to the sweep Of his majestic soul o'er seas in rage or sleep.
