THEY
BLESSED MY SHIP WITH SOFT FLOWING WORDS OF FAREWELL.
I GAVE
HER PROW TO THE SEA AND HER STERN TO THE LAND.
THE
SAILS FLAPPED AGAINST THE SPLINTERY MASTS.
I DROVE
ON TILL
I REACHED HOME,
WHERE
THOSE WHO LOVED ME WAITED.
SONGS
WERE SUNG AND SMOOTH DRINKS RAISED.
MUSIC IN
FIDDLE-STRINGS TO THE EVER-HEALING OF ALL ILLS,
THAT
WOULD MEND MEN'S HEARTS AND SOOTHE WOMEN IN TRAVAIL.
WITH THE HERO'S FATIGUE I
SLEPT.
I reached home
