Poems of Nature (Whittier)/Illustration 2

​

Night after a Storm at Sea.

Beneath the low-hung night cloudThat raked her splintering mast,The good ship settled slowly,The cruel leak gained fast.******And ship to ship made signals,Man answered back to man,While oft, to cheer and hearten,The Three Bells nearer ran.The Three Bells.
