It is an ancyent Marinere,
And he stoppeth one of three:
"By thy long grey beard and thy glittering eye
"Now wherefore stoppest me?
The bridegroom's doors are open'd wide
"And I am next of kin;
"The Guests are met, the Feast is set,
-- "May'st hear the merry din.
But still he holds the wedding-guest
-- There was a Ship, quoth he --
"Nay, if thou'st got a laughsome tale,
"Marinere! come with me."

teresa calção,
....I am very glad you liked it, especially because it is written in ancient English. It is a long but fascinatting poem about the perils and wonders of a sea voyage.
Feel free to stop by anytime you like and to write ... quer em Português quer em Inglês ...
Boas leituras...;)
bjs
