Explore "The Boy Columbus" by Madison Cawein on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ And he had mused on lands each bird, -- / That winged from realms of Falerina, / O'er seas of the Enchanted Sword, -- / In romance sang him, till he heard / Vague foam on Islands of Alcina.
/ For rich Levant and old Castile / Let other seamen freight their galleys; / With Polo he and Mandeville / Through stranger seas a dreamy keel / Sailed into wonder-peopled valleys.
