All earth and fire gasp and expire: The night hath lost her starry host, Shattered her diadem. Eternity uplifts its brink To bar the wizard wings. The lightning stoops to let them drink.

His thunder voice shall climb and crash, Scourge liars with tongue’s lightning lash, Through ranks of smitten tyrants drive, Till bosoms heave, and eyes outflash, And it is good to be alive.
