Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain ;

Man marks the earth with ruin, his control

Stops with the shore; ..............

   Mother and  lover of men, the sea.

I will go down to her, I and none other,

   Close with her, kiss her, and mix her with me.

For thou, O Lord ! hast power to save.
