World Sail Weary

More From Herman Melville

Where lies the final harbor, whence we unmoor no more? in what rapt ether sails the world, of which the weariest will never weary? where is the foundling’s father hidden? our souls are like those orphans whose unwedded mothers die in bearing them: the secret of our paternity lies in their grave, and we must there to learn it.
Mother Father Lying
In the pale light of daybreak the gravestones looked like so many white sails of boats anchored in a busy harbor. they were sails that would never again be filled with wind, sails that, too long unused and heavily drooping, had been turned into stone just as they were. the boats' anchors had been thrust so deeply into the dark earth that they could never again be raised.

As a man-of-war that sails through the sea, so this earth that sails through the air. we mortals are all on board a fast-sailing,never-sinking world-frigate, of which god was the shipwright; and she is but one craft in a milky-way fleet, of which god is the lord high admiral.

Be careful before leaving someone in a sorrowing situation. say a word of prayer with them and share even a brief word of encouragement from the scriptures.

To us, from the beginning, nature has been but a poor plastic thing, to be toyed with this way or that, as man happens to please his deity or not; to go to church or not; to say his prayers right or not; to travel on a sunday or not.was it possible for us in an instant to see nature as she is-the flowing vestment of an unchanging reality?
