1 Safely in harbor Is the King's ship.
2 To the King's ship, invisible as thou art.
3 I boarded the King's ship; now on the beak, Now in the waist, the deck, in every cabin, I flamed amazement.
4 I'll warrant him for drowning, though the ship were no stronger than a nutshell and as leaky as an unstanched wench.
5 The next: our ship, Which, but three glasses since, we gave out split, Is tight and yare and bravely rigged as when We first put out to sea.
6 Had I been any god of power, I would Have sunk the sea within the earth or ere It should the good ship so have swallowed, and The fraughting souls within her.
7 And in the morn I'll bring you to your ship, and so to Naples, Where I have hope to see the nuptial Of these our dear-beloved solemnized, And thence retire me to my Milan, where Every third thought shall be my grave.
8 We were dead of sleep And--how, we know not--all clapped under hatches, Where, but even now, with strange and several noises Of roaring, shrieking, howling, jingling chains, And more diversity of sounds, all horrible, We were awaked, straightway at liberty, Where we, in all her trim, freshly beheld Our royal, good, and gallant ship, our master Cap'ring to eye her.
