Or moisture of the vapour, left in clinging,

When the shrill storm-blast feeds it from behind,

And scatters it before, had shatter'd from

The mountain, till they fell, and with the shock

Had liveried them all over. In my brain

The spirit seem'd to flag from thought to thought,

Like moonlight wandering through a mist: my blood
