Bom dia

[Man's works are graven, cunning, and skilful

   On earth, where his tabernacles are ;

But the sea is wanton, the sea is wilful,

   And who shall mend her and who shall mar ?

Shall we carve success or record disaster

On the bosom of her heaving alabaster ?

Will her purple pulse beat fainter or faster

   For fallen sparrow or fallen star ?]

     - Adam Lindsay Gordon, The Swimmer (excerto)
