“And found on the dove-grey edge of the sea
A pearl-pale, high-born lady, who rode
On a horse with bridle of findrinny;
And like a sunset were her lips,
A stormy sunset on doomed ships....”

And the sun looked over the mountain’s rim:
And straight was a path of gold for him,
And the need of a world of men for me.”
