Her sails are full, — though the wind is still, And there blows not a breath her sails to fill ! 411 ^»>\ Say, what doth that vessel of darkness bear? The silent ,calm of the grave is there, Save now and again a death knell rung, And the flap of the sails with night fog hung. There lieth a wreck on the dismal shore Of cold and pitiless Labrador ; Where, under the moon, , upon mounts of frost Full many a mariner's bones are toss'd. Yon shadowy bark hath been to that wreck, " And the dim blue fir...e, that lights her deck, Doth play on as pale and livid a crew As ever yet drank the churchyard dew. To Deadman's Isle, in the eye of the blast, To Deadman's Isle, she speeds her fast; By skeleton shapes her sails are furTd, And the haqpl that steers is not of this world! 0, hurry thee on — 0, hurry thee on, Thou terrible bark, ere the night be gone, Nor let morning look on so foul a sight As would blanche forever her rosy light! 412 For they tell me I soon shall be wafted, in thee, To the flourishing isle of the brave and the free, I And that chill JSFova Scotia's unpromising strand ^'' Is the last I shall tread of American land.
