III

Re-born, re-born

From the splendid sea,

There should you awake and sing,

With every supple sweet from the head to the feet

Modelled like a wood-dove's wing,--

O, to awake, to shake away the night,

And find you happy there,

On the other side of death, with the sea-wind blowing round you,

And the scent of the thyme in your hair.
