The Levelling Sea
The Story of a Cornish Haven in the Age of Sail
Nor is his thought on harp or on ring-taking,
On woman’s delight or on the world’s hope,
Nor on aught else save the tossing of waves:
He ever has longing who hastens on water.
From The Seafarer
(Trans. from the Anglo-Saxon by Jonathan A. Glenn)
