THE OCEAN.
AZ rcere.a

II was brisk bright morning, and the
waves were curling before a lively breeze, the
sun was glowing above and the clusters o
vessels were floating down:the ChannelspreaC
their sails like masses of summer clouds in the
sunshine it was my first sight ofthe,t ocean. ant
that first sight was a new idea. Alexander
the Great standing on the shores of the Pers
ian Gull, said, sFEhat he then first felt what
the world was" Often as l have seen the
Ocean since. the same conception has always
forced itself on me.
In wha. magnificent world do we live
What power, what depth, what expanse lay
before me How singular. too, that while
the grandeur of the land arises from bold ir'
regularity and incessant change of aspect,fr
the endles variety of forest, vale, and noun.
tain the same effect should be produced or
The ocean by an absence of all irFeguiarly and
all change! Al simple, level horizon, per.
fectly unkroken, line of almost complete I'M
iformity, compose grandeur that impresses
and fills the soul as powerfully as the most
cloud piercing Alp or the Andes clothed with
thunder.
This was the ocean in calm but how glo.
yious, too, in tempest! The storm that sweeps
the land is simply destroyer or renovator ;
it smites the surface, and ID gone. But the
ocean is the seat OF its power, the scene ofNits
majesty, the element in which il sports, lives,
and rules-penetrating to its depths, rolling
In thunder on the shore-changlng its whole
motion, its aspect its uses, and grand as it Is
IN It's serenity, giving it another andimore aw-
ful uranduer in its convulsion. Then, how
strangely, vet how admirably, does it fulfil its
great human object its depth and extent
seem to render it the very element ofsepara-
ton; all the armies OF the earth might be
swallowed up between the shores the Chan
mel. Yet It is this element which actually
combines the remotest regions Of the earth.
Divisions and barriers are essential to the pro-
lection Of kingdoms from each other; yet
what height of mountain range, or what depth
of urecipice could he so secure as the defence
20 SIMPLY and perpetuaIly supplied bya sur
rounding sea While this protecting ele-
ment althe same time pour the wealth Of the
globe into the the bosom Of q nation.
Even all this is only the ocean as referred
to a man. How much more magnificent = I
in itself! Thrice the magnitude OF the land
tha world of waters its depth unfathCma bic
its mountains loftier than the loltiest OF The
land. It's valleys more profound, the pinnacles
