Full Fathom Five Thy Father Lies

Full Fathom Five Thy Father Lies
a poem by William Shakespeare

Full Fathom Five thy Father lies
(Ariels's song from The Tempest)

Full fathom five thy Father lies,
Of his bones are Corrall made:
Those are pearles that were his eies,
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a Sea-change
Into something rich & strange
Sea-Nymphs hourly ring his knell.
Harke now I heare them, ding-dong, bell.
