Roll on, thou deep and dark blue Ocean - roll Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain Man marks the earth with ruin - his control Stops with the shore. (Lord Byron)

Roll on, thou deep and dark blue Ocean - roll Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain Man marks the earth with ruin - his control Stops with the shore.

Lord Byron
