The DelugeCategory: The Sublime. * * * * * Whether to the east or west You go, wondrous through all Are the myriad clouds; Dense and grim they appear-- Black and fierce the firmament, Dark and horrid is all. A ray of light's not seen, But light'ning white and flashy, Thunder throughout the heavens, A torrent from on high. A thousand cascades roar Boiling with floods of hate, Rivers all powerful With great commotion rush. The air disturb'd is seen, While the distant sea's in uproar: The heaving ocean bounds, Within its prison wild; Great thundering throughout The bottomless abyss. Some folk, simple and bewilder'd, For shelter seek the mountains; Shortly the raging waters Drown their loftiest summits. Where shall they go, where flee From the eternal torrent? Conscience, a ready witness, Having been long asleep, Mute among mortals, Now awakens with stinging pangs. * * * * * Next: The Shipwreck Previous: An Ode To The Thunder
