ashes Of whose eyes send forth the lightning
hey propitiate this supposed God of the .torl
Y feasts and petitions.

King Of the storm
There, with the thunder clouds
Wreathing thy form;
There with thy vapoury wing
Spread DER the sky,
While the fierce ~lightning-iash
Cleans from thine eye
List tc our humble prayer
Hear from on high.
Soften the tempest's breath,
Keep back its blight,
And when thy spirit-gazs
Dazzles with light;
May it but shadow forth
Radiance divine;
Let not Deaths angry form
Darker our shrine
Say, in its piercing glance
Mercy may shine.
Weep Ger the dropping flowers,
Breathe DER the earth
Call all the fair and bright
Forth into birth;
Shed on the sultry air
Health from above
May its pure freshness fall
Whispering Of love-
From the hearts passion-waves
Sin 10 remove.
Lo! in the distant West
Light has CLEANED forth,
And his dark wings upreared
Far to the North:
Still does he linger there,
Kindly to throw
A Deity's smile of love
From yen bright bow
Faith and hope fondly blent,
Cheering in woe.
