Bryan Waller Procter.

The Sea! the Sea! the open Sea!

The blue, the fresh, the ever free!

Without a mark, without a bound,

It runneth the earth’s wide regions round;

It plays with the clouds; it mocks the skies;

Or like a cradled creature lies.

I’m on the Sea! I’m on the Sea!

I am where I would ever be,

With the blue above, and the blue below,
