The Northern seas are cold and cruel grey ; Across them sailed the fair tall Elven folk. Southward, the seas are blue, serene and warm; From that soft mist, with many a merry joke; Sweet Spirits came. From West, at close of day, Beneath sails brilliant as a peacock’s fan, Djinni arrived. From sunrise and through storm, Across the Eastern ocean, last came-Man.
新世界への船出
北の海は冷たく、 残酷な鉛色
汚れなき妖精が航海へ乗りだす
南をめざし、 青く、穏やかで、 暖かな海へ
かすかなもやのなかから現われ出るは
楽しげな話し声とやさしい妖精たち
夕暮れどき、 西方より
クジャクの羽根のような美しい帆をもつ船で
悪魔がやってくる。
日の出のころ、 嵐を抜けて東海を渡った
最後の者がやってきた一人間だ

The northern seas are cold and cruel grey
The Fair People set sail on their voyage
Southward, toward blue, serene and warm seas
Emerging from a faint mist
Sweet spirits came, with many a merry joke
From the west, at close of day
In a ship with sails brilliant as a peacock’s fan
The Djinn arrived
Crossing the eastern ocean through the storm at sunrise
The last to come was — Man

If you flip the map upsidedown and look at it with one eye, on the lower left is a guy holding up a map. There is so many other things hidden in these pages. It just takes looking at it from the right angle.
Yea I’m not having any luck with that, Now I do see the skyline of the city in the Sails.
