Sea U in Greece
____

Come my friends,
'Tis not too late
to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order
smite the sounding furrows;
for my purpose holds
to sail beyond the sunset
and the baths
of all the western stars,
until I die.
It may be that gulfs will wash us down;
it may be we shall touch the happy Isles,
and see the great Achilles, whom we knew.
