Here on this beach a hundred years ago, 10 Three children of three houses, Annie Lee, The prettiest little damsel in the port, And Philip Ray the miller’s only son, And Enoch Arden, a rough sailor’s lad Made orphan by a winter shipwreck, play’d 15 Among the waste and lumber of the shore, Hard coils of cordage, swarthy fishing-nets, Anchors of rusty fluke, and boats updrawn; And built their castles of dissolving sand To watch them overflow’d, or following up 20 And flying the white breaker, daily left The little footprint daily wash’d away.
