“When the inhabitants of some sequestered island first descry the “big canoe” of the European rolling through the blue waters towards their shores, they rush down to the beach in crowds, and with open arms stand ready to embrace the strangers.

—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

Drawn close by dreams of fledgling wing,
It was because night nursed them in its fold.”
