Then I saw you in a little boat, down on the river.

You had put up a sail, and was going out all alone.

I saw the boat move off from the shore just as plainly as I see you now.

I stood and watched until you were in the middle of the river.

Then I thought Mr.Emerson was standing by me, and that we both saw a great monster--a whale, or something else--chasing after your boat.
