“The Storm” [Version B]
See how from yonder hills the cloudscollect
And see how dark and dreary they dolook
Promising hail and snow the birdsretire
Into their nests and chirp and scream
Prophesying the coming storm down
System generated line number
5
pours the snow

Covering the hedges and thehouses tops
 70

Loud howls the wind andwhistling roots up many a tree
The sheep bleat loudly and thecareful dog
Collecting them in a flock conductsthem home
Then when the storm is over
System generated line number
10
from the clouds

Peeps forth the sun and shiningon the snow
Gives it that dazzling whitenessto the eye
In which its principle beautydoth consist
And so in beginning anotherline I end
