“And they heaved a mighty breath, every soul on board but me,
As they saw her nose again pointing handsome out to sea;
But all that I could think of, in the darkness and the cold,
Was just that I was leaving home and my folks were growing old.”

“Sweet death, small son, our instrument
Of immortality,
Your cries and hungers document
Our bodily decay.”
