    “The god of this great vast, rebuke these surges,
    Which wash both heaven and hell; and thou that hast
    Upon the winds command, bind them in brass,
    Having called them from the deep! O, still
    Thy deaf’ning dreadful thunders, gently quench
    Thy nimble sulphurous flashes!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    & cross the damp cold lawn & down the bluff
    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.”
