We sail, O my various
Friends, I already at the stern,
You at the lavish prow that churns
The lightning's and the winters' flood:
A sweet
intoxication
urges me
Despite pitching, tossing, fearlessly
To offer this toast while standing
Solitude, reef, and starry veil
To whatever's worthy of knowing
The white anxiety of our sail.

vale and hill; and that he seldom composed a whole poem at once, but

under the house of their order, in a tomb containing the symbols of all
things in heaven and earth, and in the waters under the earth, and set
about him inextinguishable magical lamps, which burnt on generation
after generation, until other students of the order came upon the
