Methinks he seems no bigger than his head : The fishermen, that walk upon the beach, Appear like mice ; and yond...

Whether the cold air was too much for him or the sight of the bucket too terrific I know not, but in a moment he proceeded to dissolve his corporation, and at every mesh of the dredge his fragments were seen escaping. In despair I grasped at the largest, and brought up the extremity of an arm with its terminating eye, the spinous eyelid of which opened and closed with something exceedingly like a wink of derision.

440 ページ - As when fire is with water commix'd and contending, And the spray of its wrath to the welkin upsoars, And flood upon flood hurries on, never ending ; And it never will rest, nor from travail be free, Like a sea that is labouring the birth of a sea.
