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