Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Isle of Wight
Look farther, and you will fee lall year's branches below the water, flill clinging to the fubmerged ground. The branches now bear other fruit than blackberries, hips, and haws; amongft them floats other life than gnat and midge. Tiny little mollufcs have fixed upon the twigs; they are the young fry of thefruttz' del' mare, of the fea-fruit that men gather in nets. And in place of the midges you may mark tiny atoms of life ?oating in and out, and playing at that ceafelefs game of catch-catch which the Summer ?ies keep up through all the hours of the day.
