Literature

Sea-girt Isle England. So called because, as Shakespeare has it, it is "hedged in with the main, that water-wallëd bulwark" (King John, ii. 1).
"This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands."
Shakespeare: King Richard II., ii. 1. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
