<poem>
O billows bounding far,
How wet, how we ye are!
When first my gaze ye met I said "Those waves are wet."
I said it, and am quite Convinced that I was right.
Who saith that ye are dry? I give that man the lie.
Thy wetness, O thou sea, Is wonderful to me.
It agitates my heart, To think how wet thou art.
No object I have met Is more profoundly wet.
Methinks 'twere vain to try, O sea, to wipe thee dry.
I therefore will refrain. Farewell, thou humid main.
