What happens to the Mariner's ship right after the Albatross arrives? It is freed from the ice. The sailors believed the Albatross had saved them from the icy world by summoning the wind: "Ah wretch! Said they, the bird to slay / That made the breeze to blow! Then the mist disappeared and the sun shone particularly brightly, like God's own head."
