Explore "Sir Humphrey Gilbert" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

Southward with fleet of ice / Sailed the corsair Death; / Wild and fast blew the blast, / And the east-wind was his breath.

His lordly ships of ice / Glisten in the sun; / On each side, like pennons wide, / Flashing crystal streamlets run.
