FRIEND of the wretched! One of the things we pushed real hard for was finishing races under green (flag), Wheeler said. I'm pretty sure if you said to Helen, "We have to go to Mars," she would find a . CHAOTIC pile of barren stone,That Nature's hurrying hand has thrown,Half finish'd, from the troubled waves;On whose rude brow the rifted towerHas frown'd, through many a stormy hour,On this drear site of tempest-beaten graves.Sure Desolation loves to shroudHis giant form within the cloudThat hovers round thy rugged head;And as through broken vaults beneath,The future storms low-muttering breathe,Hears the complaining voices of the dead.Here marks the fiend with eager eyes,Far out at sea the fogs ariseThat dimly shade the beacon'd strand,And listens the portentous roarOf sullen waves, as on the shore,Monotonous, they burst and tell the storm at hand.Northward the demon's eyes are castO'er yonder bare and sterile waste,Where, born to hew and heave the block,Man, lost in ignorance and toil,Becomes associate to the soil,And his heart hardens like his native rock.On the bleak hills, with flint o'erspread,No blossoms rear the purple head;No shrub perfumes the zephyrs' breath,But o'er the cold and cheerless downGrim desolation seems to frown,Blasting the ungrateful soil with partial death.Here the scathed trees with leaves half-dress'd,Shade no soft songster's secret nest,Whose spring-notes soothe the pensive ear;But high the croaking cormorant flies,And mews and hawks with clamorous criesTire the lone echoes of these caverns drear.Perchance among the ruins greySome widow'd mourner loves to stray,Marking the melancholy mainWhere once, afar she could discernO'er the white waves his sail returnWho never, never now, returns again!On these lone tombs, by storms up-torn,The hopeless wretch may lingering mourn,Till from the ocean, rising red,The misty moon with lurid rayLights her, reluctant, on her way,To steep in tears her solitary bed.Hence the dire spirit oft surveysThe ship, that to the western baysWith favouring gales pursues its course;Then calls the vapour dark that blindsThe pilot,--calls the felon windsThat heave the billows with resistless force.Commixing with the blotted skies,High and more high the wild waves rise,Till, as impetuous torrents urge,Driven on yon fatal bank accursedThe vessel's massy timbers burst,And the crew sinks beneath the infuriate surge.There find the weak an early grave,While youthful strength the whelming waveRepels; and labouring for the land,With shorten'd breath and upturn'd eyes,Sees the rough shore above him rise,Nor dreams that rapine meets him on the strand.And are there then in human formMonsters more savage than the storm,Who from the gasping sufferer tearThe dripping weed?--who dare to reapThe inhuman harvest of the deep,From half-drown'd victims whom the tempests spare?Ah, yes! We sha'nt agree, 'So why dispute ? Or who to thy asylum not remove, Thither to sip the brook, his nestlings, led By their still pensive mother, came; He saw; and murmuring forth her dear lov'd name, Implor'd her pity, and with shortening breath, Besought her to forgive him ere his death. And now, how hard in metre to relate The tears and tender pity of his mate ! From British Themis right, implores her aid in vain! much I mourn thy sorrows, hapless Queen!And deem thy expiation made to HeavenFor every fault, to which ProsperityBetray'd thee, when it plac'd thee on a throne Where boundless power was thine, and thou wert rais'dHigh (as it seem'd) above the envious reachOf destiny! Wandering on the beach, He learn'd to augur from the clouds of heaven, And from the changing colours of the sea, And sullen murmurs of the hollow cliffs, Or the dark porpoises, that near the shore Gambol'd and sported on the level brine When tempests were approaching: then at night He listen'd to the wind; and as it drove The billows with o'erwhelming vehemence He, starting from his rugged couch, went forth And hazarding a life, too valueless, He waded thro' the waves, with plank or pole Towards where the mariner in conflict dread Was buffeting for life the roaring surge; And now just seen, now lost in foaming gulphs, The dismal gleaming of the clouded moon Shew'd the dire peril.
