Where from the window, in a western view,

Majestic ocean rolls.—A summer eve

Shines o'er the earth, and all the glowing air

Stirs faintly, like a pulse; against the shore

The waves unrol them with luxurious joy,

While o'er the midway deep she looks, where like

A sea god glares the everlasting Sun

O'er troops of billows marching in his beam!—

From earth to heaven, from heaven to earth, her eyes

Are lifted, bright with wonder and with awe,
