~The Coral Cave
My palace is in the coral cave
Set with spars by the oceanwave;
Would ye have gems, then seek them there,
There found I the pearls that bind my hair.
I and the wind together can roam
Over the green waves and their white foam,
See, I have got this silver shell,
Mark how my breath will its smallness swell,
For the Nautilus is my boat
In which I over the waters float,
The moon is shining over the sea,
Who is there will come and sail with me?
