Were on its bosom, teeming full of rain.

There fell a terrible and wizard chain

Of lightning, from its black and heated forge,

And the dark waters took it to their gorge,

And lifted up their shaggy flanks in wonder

With rival chorus to the peal of thunder,

That wheel’d in many a squadron terrible

The stern black clouds, and as they rose and fell

They oozed great showers; and Julio held up

His wasted hands, in likeness of a cup,
