COLERIDGE.

THE RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER.

IN SEVEN PARTS.

FACILE credo, plures esse Naturas invisibiles quam visibiles in rerum universitate. Sed horum omnium familiam quis nobis enarrabit, et gradus et cognationes et discrimina et singulorum munera? Quid agunt? quæ loca habitant? Harum rerum notitiam semper ambivit ingenium humanum, nunquam attigit. Juvat, interea, non diffiteor, quandoque in animo, tanquam in tabulâ, majoris et melioris mundi imaginem contemplari: ne mens assuefacta hodiernæ vitæ minutiis se contrahat nimis, et tota subsidat in pusillas cogitationes. Sed veritati interea invigilandum est, modusque servandus, ut certa ab incertis, diem a nocte, distinguamus.-T. BURNET. ARCHEOL. PHIL. p. 68.

PART I.

It is an ancient Mariner,

And he stoppeth one of three.

An ancient Mariner meeteth three gallants bidden

"By thy long gray beard and glittering eye, to a wedding

Now wherefore stopp'st thou me?

The bridegroom's doors are opened wide,

feast, and detaineth

one.

And I am next of kin ;

The guests are met, the feast is set:

May'st hear the merry din."
