A CAMEO by DARTHEA ENO YUILLE

First Line: A FRIGATE BORN TO FULSOME SAIL
Last Line: BUT FROM THE SOUL AND SENSES NEVER.
Subject(s): MEMORY;

A frigate born to fulsome sail,
Hath struck across the dying sun;
Sharp, pattern'd on the orange glow,
A cameo of rarest blow,
An argosy of glory, so!
A scene which from the sight must die,
But from the soul and senses never.
