comment What does “an die bemooste See” mean?
Good reference - we can't rule out lakes in general, then. Gryphius was clearly familiar with coastal settings of the baltic sea, but there are so many lakes in that area (and pretty much most of northern Germany is known to have been a lot more boggy in his time, before the draining frenzy to gain arable land).

comment What does “an die bemooste See” mean?
Two details might discourage this interpretation: Gryhius didn't live in southern Germany (He mostly lived and was born in the northeast of Germany, nowadays within polish borders) and thus might not have been exposed to "Moos" instead of "Moor" to refer to boggy areas. The other being that he spells it "die See", not "der See", which seems to refer to "sea" rather than "lake".

Ich will damit sagen, daß in diesem Fall die ursprünglich gestellte Frage nach der Konjugation berechtigt ist, und nicht mit dem Vorschlag ein deutsches Wort zu nehmen abgebogen werden kann. Ich formuliere das mal um, da es offenbar mißverständlich ist, danke!
