About this listen

An albatross flying around a ship in the middle of the ocean was an omen of storms, wind and bad weather to come. It was also very unlucky to kill it because sailors thought that the souls of deceased sailors inhabited the albatross. Enjoy the poem written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1797 - The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
