Explore "Cape Cod" by Henry David Thoreau on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The light-house lamps were still burning, though now with a silvery lustre, when I rose to see the sun come out of the Ocean; for he still rose eastward of us; but I was convinced that he must have come out of a dry bed beyond that stream, though he seemed to come out of the water.
"The sun once more touched the fields, / Mounting to heaven from the fair flowing / Deep-running Ocean. "
