WOE to the weak when the sky is shrouded	A
And the wind of the salt way sobs as it dies	B
Woe to the weak for a great dejection	C
Droops their spirits and drowns their eyes	B
Woe to the weak who tire of fetters	D
Of grim life fetters that gall and bind	E
For the Sea tells stories of death made lovely	F
And a siren sings in the nor' east wind	E
It wanders the coast like a tombless spectre	G
And drips dank dew on the drooping leaf	H
And the soul grows pensive with dim suggestions	I
Of grey old troubles and ancient grief	H
'Tis grave and low and with woeful plaining	J
Sighs death notes under a sky of grey	K
And who hath an ear may hear the voices	L
Of pale men dead on its streaked sea way	K
In fading twilights o'er sullen seascapes	L
A lost wan wind 'neath a dead grey sky	J
It swoons to land like a weary swimmer	G
Sobs and falters and turns to die	J
Seeking a tomb in dark coast caverns	L
Where wet rust reddens the fretted stone	C
The wandering sea thing sinks to silence	L
Sinks and dies with a last low moan	C
A last low moan and deadly stillness	L
Then the sudden crash of a league long sea	L
And fresh from his den in the white ice region	C
The Wolf of the South is speeding free	L
Cleaving the air with his chill grey shoulders	L
Trampling the sea to foam beneath	M
The Wolf of the South goes howling nor'ard	N
A mastless hull in his long white teeth	M
Black swans on high a far faint phalanx	L
Wing their way to a northern clime	O
Sending feathers of sad sound downward	P
Mournful notes of an evil time	O
An evil time for the black Night chases	L
And darkness swallows the trailing flock	J
An evil season of wild white weather	G
And foam and tumult on reef and rock	J
Of yellow floods on the Northern rivers	L
And fierce waves swaying from crest to trough	Q
Of creaking schooners wearing seaward	P
And signals crying Stand off Stand off	Q
Of frothy flakes on the wild waste flying	J
And anxious faces and fateful news	L
Of close reefed topsails and battened hatches	L
And straining engines and racing screws	L
Of pumice stone and brown weeds riven	C
Cast up and flung on the hissing sand	R
Of squadroned waves and their mighty charging	J
And the stern repulse of the frowning land	R
Of whipped white faces faring stormward	R
With smothered words and wrecked replies	L
Of trees blown down on the windy ridges	L
And stormy shoutings and tempest cries	L
Of eyes that dance to the wild wind's music	J
Of strange sweet thrills through the calm sick form	O
Of Storm throned king on the mad white ocean	C
Of Storm the Monarch all hail to Storm	O
