- My galley
- Thomas Wyatt
- Exported from Wikisource on 01/16/20
- My galley charged with forgetfulness
- Thorough sharp seas, in winter nights doth pass
- 'Tween rock and rock; and eke mine enemy, alas,
- That is my lord, steereth with cruelness;
- And every oar a thought in readiness,
- As though that death were light in such a case.
- An endless wind doth tear the sail apace
- Of forced sighs and trusty fearfulness.
- A rain of tears, a cloud of dark disdain,
- Hath done the wearied cords great hinderance;
- Wreathed with error and eke with ignorance.
- The stars be hid that led me to this pain.
- Drowned is reason that should me consort,
- And I remain despairing of the port.
