CLXXVIII	A
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods	B
There is a rapture on the lonely shore	C
There is society where none intrudes	D
By the deep Sea and music in its roar	C
I love not Man the less but Nature more	C
From these our interviews in which I steal	E
From all I may be or have been before	C
To mingle with the Universe and feel	E
What I can ne'er express yet cannot all conceal	E
CLXXIX	D
Roll on thou deep and dark blue Ocean roll	F
Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain	G
Man marks the earth with ruin his control	F
Stops with the shore upon the watery plain	G
The wrecks are all thy deed nor doth remain	G
A shadow of man's ravage save his own	H
When for a moment like a drop of rain	G
He sinks into thy depths with bubbling groan	H
Without a grave unknelled uncoffined and unknown	H
CLXXX	D
His steps are not upon thy paths thy fields	D
Are not a spoil for him thou dost arise	D
And shake him from thee the vile strength he wields	D
For earth's destruction thou dost all despise	D
Spurning him from thy bosom to the skies	D
And send'st him shivering in thy playful spray	I
And howling to his gods where haply lies	D
His petty hope in some near port or bay	I
And dashest him again to earth there let him lay	I
CLXXXI	D
The armaments which thunderstrike the walls	D
Of rock built cities bidding nations quake	J
And monarchs tremble in their capitals	D
The oak leviathans whose huge ribs make	J
Their clay creator the vain title take	J
Of lord of thee and arbiter of war	C
These are thy toys and as the snowy flake	J
They melt into thy yeast of waves which mar	K
Alike the Armada's pride or spoils of Trafalgar	L
CLXXXII	D
Thy shores are empires changed in all save thee	M
Assyria Greece Rome Carthage what are they	I
Thy waters washed them power while they were free	M
And many a tyrant since their shores obey	I
The stranger slave or savage their decay	I
Has dried up realms to deserts not so thou	N
Unchangeable save to thy wild waves' play	I
Time writes no wrinkle on thine azure brow	N
Such as creation's dawn beheld thou rollest now	N
CLXXXIII	D
Thou glorious mirror where the Almighty's form	O
Glasses itself in tempests in all time	P
Calm or convulsed in breeze or gale or storm	O
Icing the pole or in the torrid clime	O
Dark heaving boundless endless and sublime	O
The image of Eternity the throne	H
Of the Invisible even from out thy slime	O
The monsters of the deep are made each zone	H
Obeys thee thou goest forth dread fathomless alone	H
CLXXXIV	A
And I have loved thee Ocean and my joy	Q
Of youthful sports was on thy breast to be	M
Borne like thy bubbles onward from a boy	Q
I wantoned with thy breakers they to me	M
Were a delight and if the freshening sea	M
Made them a terror 'twas a pleasing fear	R
For I was as it were a child of thee	M
And trusted to thy billows far and near	R
And laid my hand upon thy mane as I do here	S
