Oliver St John Gogarty's poems
3 Answers
I've posted this question in Art & Literature but had no replies. I think I might do better over here:
Does anyone know a poem that begins : A ship from Valparaiso came and in the bay her sails were furled;
she brought the wonder of her name and tidings from a sunnier world. -- I believe the title was either
'The Ship' or 'Valparaiso'

It is Valparaiso
Some lines from Oliver St John Gogarty�s poem Valparaiso,
A ship from Valparaiso came
And in the Bay her sails were furled.
She brought the wonder of her name.
O you must travel far, if you
Would sail away from the gloom and wet.

I have found another website that calls it "The Ship"
A ship from Valpara�so came,
And in the bay her sails were furled.
She brought the wonder of her name,
And tidings from a sunnier world.
'O you must travel far, if you
Would sail away from gloom and wet,
And see beneath the Andes blue,
Our white umbrageous city set'. . .
