Chapter 79: 7. Illustration to 'Edwin and Matilda' Jan. 1 "
The Beach King discovering himself to Matilda:--
A truncheon of coral he grasp'd in his hand,
Which, tho' pond'rous, with ease he could swing:
Thus array'd was the monster so fear'd thro' the land;
Thus horribly form'd, by Matilda did stand
The mighty, enormous Beach King.
