Let me ask in my turn whether there
be no excitement of the poetical fac
ulty in the clouded night as well as in
the bright one; in the wrack of clouds
by which the stars are driven in
as well as in the purple islands and
crimson archipelagoes Of sunset, in the
terror stricken rain flee before the
tempest as well as in the gentle and
refreshing showers of April; in the
craggv dangers as we'll as in the blue
distances on mountains; in the rush Of
the tornado which opens a road thru
deep untraveled and illimitable forests,
as well as in the faint and fragrant sigh
of the zephyr; in the lightning that
skaters "some great admiral, doomed
never again to be heard of; in the ear
splitting crash of the thunder, the
stricken pine, the blasted heath; in the
tiger haunted iungles of the orient; in
the vast Sahara; over which the siroc-
co sweeps like the breath of hell; in
the barren and lonely cape strewn with
wrecks and the precipitous promontory
which refuses to preserve even a SINGLE
| plank Of the ships that have been
crushed against it; in the fearful tale
suggested by the discovery of human
| skeleton upon desert island; in the
| march of the pestilence; in the bloody

noises and wild risks of an arctic night,
when the great pack is broken up and
an arctic storm is grinding and hurting
