    Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing,
    Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness:

    Only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.
    - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,

Some day, some day of days, threading the street

One little hour! and then, away they speed
On lonely paths, through mist, and cloud, and foam,
To meet no more.
