Excerpt from The Life and Letters of R. S. Hawker: Sometime Vicar of Morwenstow I hail'd thee poet in the days before A dearer bond had knit my heart ti thee, Loving the then for that thou loved'st the sea, And wast a dweller by the storm-beat shore Where stray'd my steps of old, and ocean's roar Brought news from dreamland, ere the world's decree Set my unwilling feet, no longer free, In toilsome paths, and exile evermore. But for the dear sake of thy child, who late Her plighted hand forever laid in mine, Now shall my love confess the name of son, O faithful seeker of the Cup Divine, Albeit, long since, beyond the Heavenly Gate, Thou hast achiev'd thy Quest on earth begun.
