AMBERGRIS
77
Light ! ever light ! I swim far out and follow
The footsteps of the wind, and light invades
My desolate soul, and all the cypress shades
Glow with transparent lustre, and the hollow
I thought I had hidden in my heart must swallow
The bitter draught of Truth ; no Nereid maids
Even in my sea are mine : the whole seas glades
And hills and springs are void of my Apollo
The Sea herself my tune and my desire !
The Sun himself my lover and my lyre !
