RAGING SEA

 

«The Ocean has its silent caves,

Deep, quiet, an alone;

Though there be fury on the waves,

Beneath them there is none.

The awful spirits of the deep

Hold their communion there;

And there are those for whom we weep,

The young, the bright, the fair.»

Scene no 89: Warships (Unknown manufacturer, wooden small models) that are sailing in a raging sea (IMAI plastic models, Operation Sail). 

The verses: The first two stanzas from the poem The Ocean, by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
