TheAncientMariner: `And now the
STORM-BLAST came, and he
Was tyrannous and strong: |
|
TheAncientMariner: He struck
with his o'ertaking wings,
And chased us south along. |
|
TheAncientMariner: With sloping
masts and dipping prow,
As who pursued with yell and blow
Still treads the shadow of his foe, |
|
TheAncientMariner: And forward
bends his head,
The ship drove fast, loud roared the blast,
The southward aye we fled. |
|
TheAncientMariner: And now there
came both mist and snow,
And it grew wondrous cold: |
|
TheAncientMariner: And
ice, mast-high, came floating by,
As green as emerald. |
