Page:Miscellanies - With a biographical sketch by Ralph Waldo Emerson and a general index to the writings. -- by Thoreau, Henry David.djvu/356

336 And a hoarse sound of thunder

Bellows near; and wreaths of lightning

Flash out fiercely blazing, and whirlwinds dust

Whirl up; and leap the blasts

Of all winds, 'gainst one another

Blowing in opposite array;

And air with sea is mingled;

Such impulse against me from Zeus,

Producing fear, doth plainly come.

O revered Mother, O Ether

Revolving common light to all,

You see me, how unjust things I endure!
