MARSH SONG--AT SUNSET
by: Sidney Lanier (1842-1881)
- VER the
monstrous shambling sea,
- Over the Caliban sea,
- Bright Ariel-cloud, thou lingerest:
- Oh wait, oh wait, in the warm red West,--
- Thy Prospero I'll be.
-
- Over the humped and fishy sea,
- Over the Caliban sea,
- O cloud in the West, like a thought in the heart
- Of pardon, loose thy wing and start,
- And do a grace for me.
-
- Over the huge and huddling sea,
- Over the Caliban sea,
- Bring hither my brother Antonio,--Man,--
- My injurer: night breaks the ban;
- Brother, I pardon thee.
