Oftentimes I have seen a tall ship
glide by against the tide as if drawn
by some invisible bowline, with a
hundred strong arms pulling it. Her
sails were untitled, her streamers
were dropping, she had neither side
wheel; still she moved on stately, in
serene triumph, as with her own life.
But I knew that on the other side of
the ship, hidden beneath the great
bulk that swan so majestically, there
was a little toiIsome steam tug, with a
heart of fire and arms ofiron, that was
Juggling it braveIy on; and I knew if
