The word of the day is "boustrophedon."(not a bad way to do things, if it weren't for the damn carriage return on keyboards..)

"Tis pleasant, safely to behold from shore
The rowling ship, and hear the tempest roar.
Not that another's pain is our delight;
But pains unfelt produce the pleasing sight."

Gabriel should know where I lifted this from, but it's oddly apt, no?
