Stevenson, Robert Louis (1850–1894).  A Child’s Garden of Verses and Underwoods.  1913.
  
4. At the Sea-side

WHEN I was down beside the sea 
A wooden spade they gave to me 
  To dig the sandy shore. 
  
My holes were empty like a cup. 
In every hole the sea came up,         5
  Till it could come no more.
