That nevercame ashore, but the bodies of two of the occupants were washed upon the beach,one of them the poet.

Poor Shelley ! He would haveno God while he lived, and he probably had no God when he died. The Lordknoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall M^J^ )itJCti^i o^ ^mcjci^^^*
