“At the sound
Of the cry
Of your pilots,
The countryside
Shakes.
Those that handle the oars
Come down
From their ships.
The mariners
With all the pilots
Of the sea
Stand on the shore.”
The cry of the Tyre pilots on their ships shook up the whole countryside. The various seamen came from rowing or piloting their ships, as they stood on the shore looking out at the sinking ships.
