There is a Siren in the middle sea Sings all day long and wreathes her pallid hair. Seven years you sail, and seven, ceaselessly, From any port ere you adventure there. Thither we'll go, and thither sail away Out of the world, to hear the Siren play! Thither we'll go and hide among her tresses, Since all the world is savage wildernesses. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AN EVENING IN TUSCANY by EDWARD ROBERT BULWER-LYTTON PAURA NON E NELLA CARITA by GEORGE HERBERT CLARKE ON A SCENE IN TUSCANY by RICHARD MONCKTON MILNES TO MY MUSE by AGNES MARY F.
