I
find myself at the extremity of a long beach.
How gladly does the
spirit leap forth,
and suddenly enlarge its sense of being to the full
extent of the broad, blue, sunny deep!
A greeting and a homage to the
Sea!
I descend over its margin, and dip my hand into the wave that
meets me,
and bathe my brow.
That far-resounding roar is the Ocean's
voice of welcome.
His salt breath brings a blessing along with it.
~Nathaniel Hawthorne~
