- 27:49Speaker 2: child of the wandering sea. Cast from her lap forlorn
- 27:54Speaker 2: from thy dead lips, a clear note is born than ever,
- 27:58Speaker 2: trite and blue from his is wreathed horn. While on
- 28:03Speaker 2: my ear it rings through the deep keys of thought.
- 28:07Speaker 2: I hear a voice that sings. Build thee more stately
- 28:12Speaker 2: mansions O my soul. As the swift seasons roll leave
- 28:18Speaker 2: thy low vaulted past, let each new temple over than
- 28:23Speaker 2: the last shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast,
- 28:29Speaker 2: till thou at length art free, leaving thine outgrown shell
- 28:33Speaker 2: by life's unresting sea. End of poem. This recording is

- 28:58Speaker 2: This is the ship of pearl, which poet's fain sails,
- 29:03Speaker 2: the unshadowed main, the venturous bark that flings on the
- 29:07Speaker 2: sweet summer wind, its purple wings in gulfs enchanted, where
- 29:13Speaker 2: the siren sings and coral reefs lie bare, where the
- 29:17Speaker 2: cold sea mates rise to sun, their streaming hair, its
- 29:24Speaker 2: webs of living gauze. No more unfurl wrecked is the
- 29:29Speaker 2: ship of pearl at every chambered cell, where its dim
- 29:35Speaker 2: dreaming life was wont to dwell. As the frailed tinant
- 29:39Speaker 2: shaped his growing shell before thee lies revealed, its irised ceiling, rent,
- 29:48Speaker 2: its sunless crept, unsealed year after year, beheld the silent
- 29:55Speaker 2: toil that spread his lustrous coil. Still as the spiral grew,
- 30:01Speaker 2: he left the past year's dwelling. For the new stole
- 30:05Speaker 2: with soft step, its shining archway through, built up its
- 30:11Speaker 2: idle door, stretched in his last found home, and knew
- 30:16Speaker 2: the old no more. Thanks for the heavenly message brought
- 30:22Speaker 2: by thee, child of the wandering sea. Cast from her lap,
- 30:27Speaker 2: forlorn from thy dead lips, A clearer note is born
- 30:33Speaker 2: than ever triton blew from wreathed horn. While on my
- 30:38Speaker 2: ear it rings through the deep caves of thought. I
- 30:42Speaker 2: hear a voice that sayings, build thee more stately mansions,
- 30:48Speaker 2: O my soul, as the swift seasons roll leave thy
- 30:53Speaker 2: low vaulted past. Let each new temple nobler than the last,
- 30:59Speaker 2: shut THEE from heaven with a dome more vast, till
- 31:04Speaker 2: thou at length art free, leaving thine outgrown shell by
- 31:09Speaker 2: life's unresting sea. End of poem.
