A.................102 How a ship having passed the Line was driven by Storms Ancyent Marinere Argument There was a Ship, quoth he -- Ancyent Marinere I "Nay, if thou'st got a laughsome tale, Ancyent Marinere I Quoth he, there was a Ship -- Ancyent Marinere I And listens like a three year's child; Ancyent Marinere I The wedding-guest sate on a stone, Ancyent Marinere I Red as a rose is she; Ancyent Marinere I A Wind and Tempest strong! Ancyent Marinere I Did send a dismal sheen; Ancyent Marinere I Like noises of a swound. Ancyent Marinere I And an it were a Christian Soul, Ancyent Marinere I The Ice did split with a thunder-fit; Ancyent Marinere I And a good south wind sprung up behind, Ancyent Marinere I And broad as a weft upon the left Ancyent Marinere II All in a hot and copper sky Ancyent Marinere II As idle as a painted Ship Ancyent Marinere II Upon a painted Ocean. Ancyent Marinere II The water, like a witch's oils, Ancyent Marinere II I saw a something in the Sky Ancyent Marinere III At first it seem'd a little speck Ancyent Marinere III And then it seem'd a mist: Ancyent Marinere III A certain shape, I wist. Ancyent Marinere III A speck, a mist, a shape, I wist! Ancyent Marinere III A speck, a mist, a shape, I wist! Ancyent Marinere III A speck, a mist, a shape, I wist! Ancyent Marinere III And, an it dodged a water-sprite, Ancyent Marinere III And cry'd, A sail! A sail! Ancyent Marinere III And cry'd, A sail! A sail! Ancyent Marinere III The western wave was all a flame, Ancyent Marinere III As if thro' a dungeon grate he peer'd Ancyent Marinere III His bones were black with many a crack, Ancyent Marinere III A gust of wind sterte up behind Ancyent Marinere III With never a whisper in the Sea Ancyent Marinere III Each turn'd his face with a ghastly pang Ancyent Marinere III With never a sigh or groan. Ancyent Marinere III With heavy thump, a lifeless lump Ancyent Marinere III And a million million slimy things Ancyent Marinere IV But or ever a prayer had gusht, Ancyent Marinere IV A wicked whisper came and made Ancyent Marinere IV Lay like a load on my weary eye, Ancyent Marinere IV A spirit from on high: Ancyent Marinere IV Is the curse in a dead man's eye! Ancyent Marinere IV And a star or two beside -- Ancyent Marinere IV A still and awful red. Ancyent Marinere IV Was a flash of golden fire. Ancyent Marinere IV A spring of love gusht from my heart, Ancyent Marinere IV O sleep, it is a gentle thing Ancyent Marinere V And was a blessed Ghost. Ancyent Marinere V And a hundred fire-flags sheen Ancyent Marinere V The lightning falls with never a jag Ancyent Marinere V A river steep and wide. Ancyent Marinere V And dropp'd down, like a stone! Ancyent Marinere V The dead men gave a groan. Ancyent Marinere V It had been strange, even in a dream Ancyent Marinere V Yet never a breeze up-blew; Ancyent Marinere V We were a ghastly crew. Ancyent Marinere V Sometimes a dropping from the sky Ancyent Marinere V Now like a lonely flute; Ancyent Marinere V A pleasant noise till noon, Ancyent Marinere V A noise like of a hidden brook Ancyent Marinere V A noise like of a hidden brook Ancyent Marinere V Singeth a quiet tune. Ancyent Marinere V To a man of woman born: Ancyent Marinere V By a man of woman born: Ancyent Marinere V Yet never a breeze did breathe: Ancyent Marinere V But in a minute she 'gan stir Ancyent Marinere V With a short uneasy motion -- Ancyent Marinere V With a short uneasy motion. Ancyent Marinere V Then, like a pawing horse let go, Ancyent Marinere V She made a sudden bound: Ancyent Marinere V And I fell into a swound. Ancyent Marinere V The other was a softer voice Ancyent Marinere V "Still as a Slave before his Lord, Ancyent Marinere VI As in a gentle weather: Ancyent Marinere VI For a charnel-dungeon fitter: Ancyent Marinere VI Like one, that on a lonely road Ancyent Marinere VI Because he knows, a frightful fiend Ancyent Marinere VI But soon there breath'd a wind on me, Ancyent Marinere VI Like a meadow-gale of spring -- Ancyent Marinere VI Yet it felt like a welcoming. Ancyent Marinere VI A little distance from the prow Ancyent Marinere VI Was red as in a glare. Ancyent Marinere VI And each right-arm burnt like a torch, Ancyent Marinere VI A torch that's borne upright. Ancyent Marinere VI A little distance from the prow Ancyent Marinere VI A man all light, a seraph-man, Ancyent Marinere VI A man all light, a seraph-man, Ancyent Marinere VI It was a heavenly sight: Ancyent Marinere VI Each one a lovely light: Ancyent Marinere VI And I saw a boat appear. Ancyent Marinere VI Dear Lord in Heaven! it was a joy Ancyent Marinere VI I saw a third -- I heard his voice: Ancyent Marinere VI That come from a far Contrée. Ancyent Marinere VII He hath a cushion plump: Ancyent Marinere VII "Dear Lord! it has a fiendish look -- Ancyent Marinere VII And strait a sound was heard! Ancyent Marinere VII And fell down in a fit. Ancyent Marinere VII With a woeful agony, Ancyent Marinere VII Alone on a wide wide sea: Ancyent Marinere VII With a goodly company. Ancyent Marinere VII A sadder and a wiser man Ancyent Marinere VII A sadder and a wiser man Ancyent Marinere VII
