It is there that the great orb of the day is seen, in all his splendour, slowly to rise from the bed of the ocean, and after travelling his course through the cloudless heavens, in the evening, to sink again into the wave; and as he slowly measures^ his course, and his bright beams, dancing on the bosom of the playful ocean, have gilded the surface of the green rippling wave, and the whole space of aether is touched with his splendour and serenity, surely there is much of beauty in the scene. I...t is there, in the tropical region, that when the bright luminary D2 36 THE VOYAGE. has finished his course and just gone down, and his beams, still darted upward from the deep, have tinted, in all the variety of colour, the clouds that occasionally rest on the verge of the horizon, a scene is produced, lovelier by far than any that is to be found in the whole circle of nature. And though it lasts but for a little — though the beams are soon gone, and the scene dies — yet, when the Queen of Night has taken her place in the heavens, and the stars, spread out upon the wide concave, are all sparkling and burning around her — while the meteor is giving forth its occasional blaze — another not less pleas- ing is brought forward.
