Part II.The sea! the sea! the open sea!The blue, the fresh, the ever-free!Without a mark, without a bound,It runneth the earth's wide regions round;It plays with the clouds, it mocks the skies,Or like a cradled creature lies.I never was on the dull, tame shore,But I loved the great sea more and more;And backward flew to her billowy breast,Like a bird that seeketh its mother's nest.Barry Cornwall.

The sea! the sea! the open sea!
The blue, the fresh, the ever-free!
Without a mark, without a bound,
It runneth the earth's wide regions round;
It plays with the clouds, it mocks the skies,
Or like a cradled creature lies.
I never was on the dull, tame shore,But I loved the great sea more and more;And backward flew to her billowy breast,Like a bird that seeketh its mother's nest.Barry Cornwall.

But I loved the great sea more and more;
And backward flew to her billowy breast,
Like a bird that seeketh its mother's nest.
