Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Scrap-Book of Pictures and Fancies
Some love the ocean and its pomp of power, In its wide solitude delight to dwell, Dreaming of sea-nymph in each coral bower, Hearing a mermaid's voice in hollow shell The marvels of her Home in ocean tell; Oi creatures quaint that, in sea-caves, abide; Her cadences breathed forth like ocean's swell.
