This ghost, an ageless young man, ever idle and restless, courteous and cruel, unchanging child of change, this man will say no more. He touches his lips to signal silence. He smiles and, miming the blowing out of a candle, he takes a thief’s farewell, first the color fading, then the sad cold light of his eyes gone, and one last blinking of something—a jewel, a ring, a coin cupped in his palm, and darkness comes between us and is final.

To seeke new worlds, for golde, for prayse, for glory,

To try desire, to try loue seuered farr,

When I was gonn shee sent her memory

More stronge than weare ten thowsand shipps of warr.
