Nothing of all this. What then? Has it talked forso many ages, and meant nothing all the while--No; for those ages findutterance in the sea's unchanging voice, and warn the listener towithdraw his interest from mortal vicissitudes, and let the infiniteidea of eternity pervade his soul. This is wisdom; and, therefore, will I spend the next half-hour in shaping little boats of drift-wood, and launching them on voyages across the cove, with the feather of asea-gull for a sail. If the voice of ages... tell me true, this is aswise an occupation as to build ships of five hundred tons, and launchthem forth upon the main, bound to "far Cathay. " Yet, how would themerchant sneer at me!
And, after all, can such philosophy be true? Methinks I could find athousand arguments against it. Well, then, let yonder shaggy rock, mid-deep in the surf, --see! he is somewhat wrathful, --he rages androars and foams, --let that tall rock be my antagonist, and let meexercise my oratory like him of Athens, who bandied words with anangry sea and got the victory.
