Two Years Before the Mast

Name: Two Years Before the Mast - Two Years Before the Mast
Author: Richard Henry Dana

Dana, Richard Henry, 1815-1882

—Crowded in the rank and narrow ship,
— Housed on the wild sea with wild usages,
— Whate’er in the inland dales the land conceals
Of fair and exquisite,
O! nothing, nothing,
Do we behold of that in our rude voyage.
Coleridge’s Wallenstein.
