The Ship Starting

LO! the unbounded sea!On its breast a Ship starting, spreading all her sails⁠—an ample Ship,carrying even her moonsails;The pennant is flying aloft, as she speeds, she speeds so stately⁠—below,emulous waves press forward,They surround the Ship, with shining curving motions, and foam.
