London has swept about you this score years
And bright ships left you this or that in fee:
Ideas, old gossip, oddments of all things,
Strange spars of knowledge and dimmed wares of price.”

the dark ships move, the dark ships move,
their bright ironical names
like jests of kindness on a murderers mouth;”
