My interpretation: A pirate frigate sits becalmed in the still tranquillity of night under the light of the aurora borealis. Giving a moment for peace, reflection, and a chance for the crew to catch their collective breaths. Enjoying the magical beauty of the world, before they once again head out to pillage and plunder.

There is nothing more annoying in this world than the will without the power. At any time, a vessel becalmed is considered a very sufficing reason for swearing by those who are on board of her.
