Or blaze of Indian sky.

Go! ask him of the whirlpool’s roar,

Whose echoing thunder peals

Loud, as if rush’d along the shore

An army’s chariot-wheels;

Of icebergs, floating o’er the main,

Or fix’d upon the coast,

Like glittering citadel or fane,

Mid the bright realms of frost;

Of coral rocks from waves below
