    And I have loved them, Ocean! and my joy
    Of youthful sports was on thy breast to be
    Borne, like shy bubbles, onward; from a boy
    I wanton'd with thy breakers.
    . . . .
    And laid my hand upon thy mane--as I do here.

Alone I walked on the ocean strand,
A pearly shell was in my hand;
I stooped, and wrote upon the sand
My name, the year, the day.

One lingering look behind I cast,
A wave came rolling high and fast,
And washed my lines away.

When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a

And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here
shall thy proud waves be stayed?
