Up to the top where the six trees stand. . . .

And there would I rest, and lie,

My chin in my hands, and gaze

At the dazzle of sand below,

And the green waves curling slow,

And the grey-blue distant haze

Where the sea goes up to the sky. . . .

And I’d say to myself as I looked so lazily down at the sea:

“There’s nobody else in the world, and the world was made for me.”
