The faithful helm commands the keelB
From port to port fair breezes blowA
But the ship must sail the convex seaC
Nor may she straighter goA
-
So man to man in fair accordD
On thought and will the winds may waitE
But the world will bend the passing wordF
Though its shortest course be straightE
-
From soul to soul the shortest lineG
At best will bended beC
The ship that holds the straightest courseH
Still sails the convex seaC
