Gulls that circle and winds that blow;

Baskets and boats and men in motion,

Sailing and scattering to and fro.

Girls are waiting, their wimples adorning

With crimson sprinkles the broad gray flood;

And down the beach the blush of the morning,

Shines reflected from moisture and mud.

Broad from the yard the sails hang limpy,

Lightly the steersman whistles a lay;
