THE VOYAGER (1) by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: COLUMBUS-LIKE, I SAILED INTO THE NIGHT
Last Line: LIFE'S INDIES LAY BEHIND!
Subject(s): NIGHT; TRAVEL; BEDTIME; JOURNEYS; TRIPS;

Columbus-like, I sailed into the night
The sunset gold to find;
Alas! 'twas but the phantom of the light!
Life's Indies lay behind!
