On Revisiting the Sea-shore Annotated

God be with thee, gladsome Ocean!
&nbspHow gladly greet I thee once more!
Ships and waves, and ceaseless motion,
&nbspAnd men rejoicing on thy shore.

Dissuading spake the mild Physician,
&nbsp'Those briny waves for thee are Death!'
But my soul fulfilled her mission,
&nbspAnd lo! I breathe untroubled breath!

Fashion's pining sons and daughters,
&nbspThat seek the crowd they seem to fly,
Trembling they approach thy waters;
&nbspAnd what cares Nature, if they die?

Me a thousand hopes and pleasures
&nbspA thousand recollections bland,
Thoughts sublime, and stately measures,
&nbspRevisit on thy echoing strand:

Dreams (the Soul herself forsaking),
&nbspTearful raptures, boyish mirth;
Silent adorations, making
&nbspA blessed shadow of this Earth!

O ye hopes, that stir within me,
&nbspHealth comes with you from above!
God is with me, God is in me!
&nbspI cannot die, if Life be Love.
