Is Coleridge's Mariner Vasco Da Gama Or Columbus' Song? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Is Coleridge's Mariner Vasco Da Gama Or Columbus' Song?



Coleridge's The Ancient Mariner
Created out of fancy and imagination
Is but Vasco da Gama or Columbus' song,
A sailor, a boatman, a shipman's song,
A navigator's song,
A poem of new light and new lands,
The wide-wide sea and man as a lonely traveller
On the vast fathomless sea
So deep, so full of waters.
