Scuttler's Cove

by David Barnett

‘They are the gods of our wondrous sun-rises and sunsets. The sea; our sea, gives up to us her gods and goddesses … the gods of our own wild storms; the gods of our bleak moors, of our hills and dales, of our fertile fields; the gods of our bubbling springs, of our babbling brooks and placid rivers; the gods of rowan and the British oak.’ Cornwall: The Land of the Gods, T.F.G. Dexter (1932)
