The thunderbolt to stop; I've roused the sea455

When no wind blew, and calmed the swollen waves;

The thirsty plain has opened at my touch

To springs of water; rocks give way to me,

And doors fly open; when I bid them stand

The shades of hell obey, and talk with me;

The infernal dog is still at my command;460

Midnight has seen the sun, midday the night.

For sea, land, heaven, and hell obey my will,

And nothing can withstand my potent charms.
