201 <br /> <br />Two swimmers wrestled on the spar— <br />Until the morning sun— <br />When One—turned smiling to the land— <br />Oh God! the Other One! <br /> <br />The stray ships—passing— <br />Spied a face— <br />Upon the waters borne— <br />With eyes in death—still begging raised— <br />And hands—beseeching—thrown!<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-swimmers-wrestled-on-the-spar/
