Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:

To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”

The treasure of our tongue, to what strange shores
This gain of our best glory shall be sent,
T’enrich unknowing nations with our stores?

May come refined with th’accents that are ours?”
