Rhyme Scheme: ABCBAACADAAAEAFAGGHG IGAAAGJGIIDRIFTING down the Harbour | A |
Stars on high | B |
Lovers of the surface | C |
You and I | B |
Let us never pry and wonder | A |
At the things that lie thereunder | A |
Underneath the surface | C |
Silver fair | A |
Let us never question | D |
What lies there | A |
Lest we lose like some robbed miser | A |
All our treasure growing wiser | A |
Lo it has the beauty | E |
Of a flower | A |
Is it not sufficient | F |
For the hour | A |
Just to drift as mists are drifted | G |
Depths unplumbed and veils unlifted | G |
Where's the flawless jewel | H |
Stainless breast | G |
Where's the Love that answers | I |
Every test | G |
Where's the past that's altogether | A |
Cloudless as this radiant weather | A |
Drifting down the Harbour | A |
On the tide | G |
Careless of all knowledge | J |
Let us glide | G |
Heedless of what Life discovers | I |
Save that you and I are lovers | I |
