âAnd firmly pray arrive the day
Heâs never more to roamâ
Probably my favourite part.
At first it sounds like a young maiden praying and hoping that her lover will return to her having satisfied his thirst for adventure and danger, so that they can settle down and be together, live happily. Itâs innocent and sweet.
⌠but then you realise that this is sung by a siren whoâs trying to lure a sailor to his death, and suddenly him ânot roaming anymoreâ takes on a much darker and more eerie meaningâŚ

I just realised that the line âConversing with a young lass who seemed to be in pain, saying âWilliam, when you go I fear youâll neâer return againâ.â Is in fact the mermaids reciting an interaction they overheard between Will and Elizabeth, they even described him accurately âhis hair, it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal.â
