Stran 57 - The many men, so beautiful ! And they all dead did lie : And a thousand thousand slimy things Lived on; and so did I.
Stran 50 - The ice was here, the ice was there, The ice was all around: It cracked and growled, and roared and howled, Like noises in a swound!
Stran 58 - I closed my lids, and kept them close, And the balls like pulses beat; For the sky and the sea, and the sea and the sky, Lay like a load on my weary eye, And the dead were at my feet.
