Come unto these yellow sands,
Full fathom five thy father lies;
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
And then take hands:
Ding-dong.
Of his bones are coral made;
Hark! now I hear them - Ding-dong, bell.
The watch-dogs bark.
Cry, Cock-a-diddle-dow.
Hark, hark!
Foot it featly here and there;
Hark, hark! I hear
Nothing of him that doth fade,
Bow-wow.
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
But doth suffer a sea-change
The strain of strutting chanticleer
Curtsied when you have, and kiss'd
Into something rich and strange.
And, sweet sprites, the burthen bear.
The wild waves whist,
Bow-wow.
