“Eternity is the sun
mixed
with the sea”

“And from that time on I bathed in the Poem
Of the Sea, star-infused and churned into milk,
Devouring the green azures; where, entranced in pallid flotsam,
A dreaming drowned man sometimes goes down.”

Arthur Rimbaud

“It is found again.
What? Eternity.
It is the sea
Gone with the sun.”

Arthur Rimbaud

Elle est retrouvée,
Quoi ?
L'Éternité.
C'est la mer allée
Avec le soleil.
L'Éternité (1872)
Variant translation:
It has been recovered.
What? — Eternity.
It is the sea escaping
With the sun.
