I trust the sanity of my vessel; and

the waves which have kept me from reaching you.”

The sailor frae the main,
But I hae parted frae my Love,
Never to meet again, my dear,
Never to meet again.”

The moon is staggering in the sky;
Moon-struck by the despairing
Glances of her wandering eye
We grope, and grope in vain,
For children born of her pain.”
