My Anchor Holds Within The Veil

Waver not, O leaguered ketch. Hark now thy Captain's call! Hold tightly, thou, thine anchor:

firm, 'midst heaving, seething squall.

For fixed, set, and fastened -- see! 'Tis hooked round thee! And drawn art thou toward heaven's celestial quay, whence breaks fair glory's dawn.
