[hometext] => This poem narrates the plight of the lady-love who has lost her lover and who speaks with a character not in original human form.
[bodytext] => Come dear Merman, let us away Down and below, this way, this way Call him once before you go In a voice that he will know For my voices, wild with pain, Surely he should come again Call him once and come away Down and below, this way, this way Dear Merman, “were we long alone”, The sea grows stormy and there we moan Long prayers, “I said,” in the world they say Come, “ I said and we rose through the surf in the bay He sate by the pillar; we saw him clear; Dear lover! Come quick, we are here! Dear heart, “I said, “ we are long alone; The sea grows stormy and there we moan At the white sleeping town And then came back down Saying: “Here dwells a loved one, how cruel is he, Who has left lonely forever, the queen of the sea”!
