<span>A maiden and a sailor are the two viewpoints. The maiden still has an innocent view of life, which is yet to be tainted, a maiden with freedom and a long life ahead. Then there's the sailor, who has no hope of reaching shore, and feels that the ocean is a cruel tool of nature. He no longer has innocence in his view, therefore viewing the ocean as dark and dreary. Hope this helps! :)</span>
