Listen, Stranger! Mist and Snow,
And it grew wondrous cauld:
And Ice mast-ing by
As green as Emerauld.
And ts ts

the Ice was all around:
It crackd and growld, and roard and howld--
Like noises of a swound.
At lengtross,

And an it were a Cian Soul,

And round and round it ?ew:

And a good south wind sprung up behind,
tross did follow;
And every day for food or play
Came to the Marineres hollo!
In mist or cloud on mast or shroud
It perchd for vespers nine,

Glimmerd te moon-shine.
quot;God save t Marinere!
quot;From t plague thus--
