The poem, set in the cemetery at Sète (where Valéry himself is now buried), is a meditation on death. At first the narrator observes the calm sea under the blazing noontime sun and accepts the inevitability of death. But as the wind begins to stir and waves start forming on the sea, a sign of the energy beneath the surface, the narrator proclaims the necessity of choosing life by choosing eternal change over contemplation.Valéry approached the composition of the poem as if it were a musical form, with the rhythm of the verse mimicking the movement of the sea.

Dévalant la pente aride du mont Saint-Clair, plongeant vers les eaux lumineuses de la Méditerranée, il accueille vivants et défunts clans la magnificence. Le cimetière marin de Sète, terre à part, éternelle inspiration. Hier le poète, aujourd'hui Jean-Loup Gautreau avec des clichés de noirs et de blancs, silencieuses chorégraphies des ombres et de la lumière autrement invisibles... S'ouvrant sur une préface de Paul Valéry, ce recueil photographique, révélation de l'âme secrète du lieu, a été mis en littérature par Jean-Louis Cianni, Jacky Vilacèque, François-Bernard Michel et Lilian Bathelot.
