William Shakespeare(1564–1616)
Full Fathom Five
Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea nymphs7 hourly ring his knell:
Ding-dong.
Hark! now I hear them—Ding-dong, bell.
