Herman Melville (Герман Мелвилл)

The Man-of-War-Hawk

     Yon black man-of-war-hawk that wheels in
         the light
     O'er the black ship's white sky-s'l, sunned
         cloud to the sight,
     Have we low-flyers wings to ascend to his
         height?
     No arrow can reach him; nor thought can
         attain
     To the placid supreme in the sweep of his
         reign.
