The north wind roared, <br>And into the night we flew. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Four of us living and one for a ghost, <br>Furrowing crest and swell,<br>Through the surge and the dark, for that faint far spark, <br>We ploughed with Azrael. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Three of us ruffled and one gone mad, <br>Crashing to south we went; <br>And three of us there were too spattered to care<br>What this late sailing meant. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">So down we steered and along we tore <br>Through the flash of the midnight foam: <br>Silent enough to be ghosts on guard. <br>We ferried the dead girl home.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">We ferried her down to the voiceless wharf, <br>And we carried her up to the light; <br>And we left the two to the father there, <br>Who counted the coals that night. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Then back we steered through the foam again,<br>But our thoughts were fast and few; <br>And all we did was to crowd the surge <br>And to measure the life we knew;— </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Till at last we came where a dancing gleam <br>Skipped out to us, we three,—<br>And the dark wet mooring pointed home <br>Like a finger from the sea. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Then out we pushed the teetering skiff <br>And in we drew to the stairs; <br>And up we went, each man content<br>With a life that fed no cares. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Fingers were cold and feet were cold, <br>And the tide was cold and rough; <br>But the light was warm, and the room was warm, <br>And the world was good enough.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">And there were the pipes, and there was the punch, <br>More shrewd than Satan’s tears: <br>Fingal had fashioned it, all by himself, <br>With a craft that comes of years. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">And there we were together again—<br>Together again, we three: <br>Morgan, Fingal, fiddle, and all, <br>They were there for the night with me.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Edwin+Arlington+Robinson">Edwin Arlington Robinson</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=381420" data-title="The Return of Morgan and Fingal de Edwin Arlington Robinson" data-description="And there we were together again— Together again, we three: Morgan, Fingal, fiddle, and all, They had come for the night with me.
