Arms and legs and flaming hair,

Like a whirlwind on the sea.

Like a wind that sucks the sea,

Over and in and on the sea,

And every man of all the four

Shut his eyes and laughed outright.

Laughed as long as they had breath,

Laughed while they had sense or breath;

And close about us coiled a mist
