Page 7 - The wonderful air is over me, And the wonderful wind is shaking the tree; It walks on the water, and whirls the mills, And talks to itself on the tops of the hills.
Page 8 - With the wheat-fields that nod and the rivers that flow, With cities and gardens, and cliffs and isles, And people upon you for thousands of miles? Ah! you are so great, and I am so small, I tremble to think of you, World, at all; And yet, when I said my prayers to-day, A whisper inside me seemed to say, "You are more than the Earth, though you are such a dot: You can love and think, and the Earth cannot!
Page 99 - Granite to me is potter's clay: Under the touch of my careless waves It rises in turrets and sinks in caves; The iron cliffs that edge the land I grind to pebbles, and sift to sand, And beach-grass bloweth and children play In what were the rocks of yesterday; It is but a moment of sport to me — I am the Sea!

Page 99 - I am the Sea. The earth I sway; Granite to me is potter's clay ; Under the touch of my careless waves It rises in turrets and sinks in caves; The iron cliffs that edge the land I grind to pebbles and sift to sand, And beach-grass bloweth and children play In what were the rocks of yesterday. It is but a moment of sport to me. I am the Sea ! I am the Sea. In my bosom deep Wealth and Wonder and Beauty sleep ; Wealth and Wonder and Beauty rise In changing splendor of sunset skies, And comfort the earth...
