1892. From an introductory passage: The poetry of the sea has been
abundant in our century. Every great singer has essayed to express
the deep but vague emotions aroused in us by the unanswering
waters. Reveries, descriptions, pictures of fancy, dreams of
imagination, stirring ballads, and matchless songs have been born
of the mysterious influence. Wordsworth, Shelley, Keats; Tennyson,
Browning, Swinburne, and Whitman, the beginning and the end of the
last romantic period of song, with all the band of true poets
between, have celebrated the sea in adequate verse; and even lesser
bards have uttered memorable strains in its praise. It is, in
truth, a perennial source of artistic inspiration and poetic charm,
as it is a living element of human delight and health. Here, then,
are gathered into a volume's space some of the sweetest and noblest
of these songs of the ocean, commingled-as beach with sea-among
pictures that open vistas and suggest beauties omitted in the less
definite medium of the printed page.
