The tranquil days succeeded one an
other like the beads on a rosary. After
polishing the great lenz and making
everything tidy, Byrne loved to sit
on the balcony overlooking the ocean
and watch the grand water panorama
which was constantly shifting before
his eyes; the white-winged steamers
with their waving banners of smoke,
the flocks of sea gulls cleaving the air
on level pinion or sitting gracefully on
the rolling pillows. Through his glass
he could see shoals of porpoises at
play like frolicsome schoolboys, and,
farther off, a feathery column of spray
followed by CLEAN of the huge brown
back Of whale. @t
Day after day he watched the creep
ing tide cover the sands and then re-
tire, marking each step OF its retreat
with winrow of pale green seaweed
and stranded shell fishes. The mys.
terious heart-throbs of the ocean, now
lealing like thunder, now ripping
softly as summer Wayelets on an in
land lake, thrilled him as no human
speech could do. ,l=,as
