The sea was sapphire coloured, and the sky
Burned like a heated opal through the air,
We hoisted sail; the wind was blowing fair
For the blue lands that to the eastward lie.

The title makes me think of blue and white porcelain at the first sight, another magnificent thing all over the world!
Btw, love the Doric pillars most.
It is amazing to see those marvellous designs. What a pity there remain only a few ruins that remind us of the old days.
At least, the epic carved in stone will never die.
