Algernon Charles Swinburne - At Sea

2014-11-07 25 Dailymotion

'Farewell and adieu' was the burden prevailing <br />Long since in the chant of a home-faring crew; <br />And the heart in us echoes, with laughing or wailing, <br /> Farewell and adieu. <br /> <br />Each year that we live shall we sing it anew, <br />With a water untravelled before us for sailing <br />And a water behind us that wrecks may bestrew. <br /> <br />The stars of the past and the beacons are paling, <br />The heavens and the waters are hoarier of hue: <br />But the heart in us chants not an all unavailing <br /> Farewell and adieu.<br /><br />Algernon Charles Swinburne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/at-sea-4/
