Henrik Johan Ibsen Night Poems
- 1. The Miner
Beetling rock, with roar and smoke
Break before my hammer-stroke!
Deeper I must thrust and lower
Till I hear the ring of ore.
... - 2. Gone
THE last, late guest
To the gate we followed;
Goodbye -- and the rest
The night-wind swallowed.
... - 3. Burnt Ships
TO skies that were brighter
Turned he his prows;
To gods that were lighter
Made he his vows.
