The loud wind never reached the ship,

Yet now the ship moved on!

Beneath the lighning and the Moon

The dead men gave a groan.

They groaned, they stirred, they all uprose

Nor spake, nor moved their eyes;

It had been strange, even in a dream,

To have seen those dead men rise.

The helmsmann steered, the ship moved on

Yet never a breeze up blew;

The mariners all ’gan work the ropes,

Where they were wont to do.

They raised their limbs like lifeless tools…

We were a ghastly crew.

The body of my brother’s son

Stood by me, knee to knee:

The body and I pulled at one rope,

But he said nought to me.”
