The saxophones of heavenand the tap-drums of the seaare tuning up in darkness,

and the good ship plunges free.

In fluent mountain-rangesthe waves play hide-and-seekwith here a gaping chasm,and there a snowbound peak.

The cowards in the cabinoutshriek the screaming foam,but I confront the weather—

and wish I were at home.
