Hi billy and thanks,
I love humilty! There are link words stanza end to stanza start: trees-nests, gulls-sailors souls, sand-sandstone tombstones, briney boys-sailors,shipmates lost-buried inland.I used to get fixated by that kind of thing...some say nothing has changed.
The churchyard had a sign...All Saints. That's all I can remember except that at 18 I though that all those buried there had been beatified. Idiot.

yes, i saw the connections after the third verse. and i think that was a good thing. it created a build up into the ah moment of thinking . i got it.
