  3. Meeting at Night • The gray sea and the long black land; • And the yellow half-moon large and low; • And the startled little waves that leap • In fiery ringlets from their sleep, • As I gain the cove with pushing prow, • And quench its speed i' the slushy sand. • Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach; • Three fields to cross till a farm appears; • A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch • And blue spurt of a lighted match, • And a voice less loud, through its joys and fears, • Than the two hearts beating each to each!
