Over the proud unfruitful sea,
East and west the ships came back
Happily or unhappily....”

Heard it on the Aegaean, and it brought
Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow
Of human misery; we
Find also in the sound a thought,
Hearing it by this distant northern sea.”

To happen in heaven beyond the floats of cloud
And the Northern Lights that run like tingling nerves.”
