Signs Of Life

	At length did cross an albatross
	Through the fog it came
	As if it had been a Christian soul
	We hailed it in God's name
	It ate the food it ne'er had eat
	And 'round and 'round it flew
	The ice did split with a thunder fit
	The helmsman steered us through
	And a good south wind sprang up behind
	The albatross did follow
	And everyday for food or play
	Came to the mariners' hollow
