„The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.

The tide is full, the moon lies fair
Upon the straits;—on the French coast the light

Songs that sailors, and blind men, and beggars have heard
She knows more of love than the poets can say
