THE sSTORM MING"
\ hal orfsn been told of the King of Storms,
md fancy had pictured him IN various forms
Thong nj he would come IN an ambient cloud,
When lightning flashed bright, and thunder reared
loud, -, \.
Nhen saw the bright fluid IN vivid display.
I Thought twas the Storm Kings carriage of fire,
As ne rude through the heavens displaying his ire
And when rain fell on the dry, thirstIng earth,
And fear to predictions of famine gave birth,
thought twas because OF the corruptiOns of men,
That he watered not mountain, nor valley, nor glen.
And great was my wonder when first was told
That he Was being of mere human mould,
And that one more amable, loving, and kind,
In heart and Ia manners never could find
When knew hun, mild fancies were changed into
love.
For he gentle and kind as angels above.
