"the sun was shining on the sea,
shining with all his might:
he did his very best to make
the billows smooth and bright —
and this was odd because it was
the middle of the night.

because she thought the sun
had got no business to be there
after the day was done —
"it's very rude of him," she said,
"to come and spoil the fun."
