I fled down
to the shores of the water,
the salt weeds
exposed at low water,
Delicate sniffs of sea-breeze,
the sniff of the shore
and dark-color’d sea-rocks.
The fragrance of saltmarsh
and shoremud,
The briny and damp smell
of sedgy grass
and fields by the shore
I like the smell of the salt
and sedge along the water,
I perceive that
the sedgy weed has refreshing odors,
Perfume delightful to my nostrils
