Wonderful lovely there she sat,
Singing the night away,
All in the solitudinous sea
Of that there lonely bay.

Additional quotes by Walter de la Mare

Slowly, silently, now the moon
Walks the night in her silver shoon.

A harvest mouse goes scampering by,
With silver claws and silver eye;
And moveless fish in the water gleam,
By silver reeds in a silver stream.

Some one came knocking
At my wee, small door;
Some one came knocking,
I’m sure—sure—sure.

Wonderful lovely there she sat, Singing the night away, All in the solitudinous sea Of that there lonely bay. - Walter de la Mare
