now finale to the shore

Now finale to the shore,
Now land and life finale and farewell,
Now Voyager depart, [much, much for thee is yet in store,]
Often enough hast though adventur'd o'er the seas,
Cautiously cruising, studying the charts,
Duly again to port and hawser's tie returning;
But now obey thy cherish'd sectret wish,
Embrace thy friends, leave all in order,
To port and hawser's tie no more returning,
Depart upon thy endless cruise old Sailor.

the untold want

The untold want by life and land ne'er granted,
Now voyager sail thou forth to seek and find.
