Why daily wander out from Paradise?

III. 4

World-besieging Storm, from horizon heaped and menacing

Rear up the walls of thunder, till they tower

Shattering over earth, and from heart to heart reverberate,

Lancing that bright fear through the ruin-shower!

Revel, Winds, severing the bough of leafy promises

With rages from returning chaos sent!

Mockers and Destroyers, come; here is Man, predestinate

To all your arrows at his bosom bent.
