As mad sexton's bell, tolling <br />For earth's loveliest daughter <br />Night's dumbness breaks rolling <br />Ghostily: <br />So our boat breaks the water <br />Witchingly. <br /> <br />As her look the dream troubles <br />Of her tearful-eyed lover, <br />So our sails in the bubbles <br />Ghostily <br />Are mirrored, and hover <br />Moonily.<br /><br />Thomas Lovell Beddoes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/song-on-the-water/
