IMPROMPTU:
Reading edition
ON THE DEATH OF MR. THOMAS KNEATH, A WELL-KNOWN TEACHER OF NAVIGATION, AT SWANSEA.
He pupils taught to brave the gale Secure on life's tempestuous sea; Then, pupil he of Death, set sail To navigate Eternity.
The students taught by him—return In safety to their friends ashore; But tutor Death, so cold and stern, Brings back his pupils—never-more.
