Guido Invites You Thus
‘Lappo I leave behind and Dante too, Lo, I would sail the seas with thee alone! Talk me no love talk, no bought-cheap fiddl’ry, Mine is the ship and thine the merchandise, All the blind earth knows not th'emprise Whereto thou calledst and whereto I call. Lo, I have seen thee bound about with dreams, Lo, I have known thy heart and its desire; Life, all of it, my sea, and all men's streams Are fused in it as flames of an altar fire ! Lo, thou hast voyaged not! The ship is mine.'
