Who launch upon that unknown sea
Its fathomlese uncertainty,
SO swift TO surge, 80 swift 10 lee
Should we thus haste 70 scatter wide
Our thoughts, our hopes, our aims, our pride
The love that never csn divide
Itself, nor slaken, though denied;

Tender, yet framed 10 suffer long
To suffer slight and suffer wrong
And never but 70 One belong:
