A Sea-Spell |
| A Sea-Spell\nHer lute hangs shadowed in the apple-tree,\nWhile flashing fingers weave the sweet-strung spell\nBetween its chords; and as the wild notes swell,\nThe sea-bird for those branches leaves the sea.\nBut to what sound her listening ear stoops she?\nWhat netherworld gulf-whispers doth she hear,\nIn answering echoes from what planisphere,\nAlong the wind, along the estuary?\nShe sinks into her spell: and when full soon\nHer lips move and she soars into her song,\nWhat creatures of the midmost main shall throng\nIn furrowed self-clouds to the summoning rune,\nTill he, the fated mariner, hears her cry,\nAnd up her rock, bare breasted, comes to die? |
