The sea did what it liked, and what it liked was destruction. It thundered at the town
and thundered at the cliffs, and brought the coast down, madly. The air among the houses was of so strong a piscatory flavor that one might have supposed sick fish went up to be dipped in it, as sick people went down
to be dipped in the sea. A little fishing was done in the port, and a quantity of strolling
about by night and... Liquid or solid? Um, both. Both it is. Thanks
