Photographic process reproduction of pen and ink drawing

Lines illustrated from Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner:

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
     Alone on a wide wide sea!

The illustration might also relate to a passage that appears two pages later:

A wicked whisper came, and made
     My heart dry as dust.
