Excerpt from Secrets in Every Mansion: A Scottish RecordSecrets in every Mansion.The silver-crested moon pours on theSwelling tide her placid light, the helmsmanCheerly sings, while on the polar star, inSteadfast gaze, his eve is fix'd. Then home, andPerils past, employ the thoughts of all theBusy crew. One hapless wretch avoids theNoisy throng, and sad and lonely sits apart, And chides the prosp'rous gale, and as the landRecedes from sight, drops tears of anguish inThe rolling waves.The frighted moon veils her bright head, Whale the dark spirit of the storm sails onHis cloudy throne along the troubled sky.Hark! his desolating breath howls through theRattling shrouds, thrown from his hand, the flamingLight'ning splits the shiv'ring mast. Ah! haplessWretches! all around is desolation, Wee, and death.Bless you, man! she was sav'd by miracle -Preserv'd in the midst of storms and tempests, Like a pearl in an oyster shell.H.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
