Built close by the side of its tiny
bay the little fishing town of Saint
Ives huddles over the water, blend

scape. The tiny cottages jumbled
along the narrow, crooked streets are
built of rough stone hewn from ma

themselves are paved with huge ir-
regular slabs of the same stone.
In the tiny, crescent-shaped harbOr
the fishing boats rest at anchor dur

stripped of canvas, reaching upward

Ives own birds. hover and flutter
among the boats and over the water

wings like the voice of the sleepy old
town.

down by the piers the gruff, brown
fishermen sit and smoke. mending

large sums for a short poem from his

ton, but their objection may not be
strong enough to lead them to vote
against it.
