LINES, FR. NEPENTHE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Hurry me nymphs! O, hurry me
Last Line: Alive in his uncovered grave.
Subject(s): Nymphs


Hurry me Nymphs! O, hurry me
Far above the grovelling sea,
Which, with blind weakness and base roar
Casting his white age on the shore,
Wallows along that slimy floor;
Which with his widespread webbed hands
Seeking to climb the level lands
But rejected still to rave
Alive in his uncovered grave.
