الصفحة 139 - So spake the Son, and into terror changed His countenance, too severe to be beheld, And full of wrath bent on his enemies. At once the four spread out their starry wings, With dreadful shade contiguous, and the orbs Of his fierce chariot roll'd, as with the sound Of torrent floods, or of a numerous host.
الصفحة 177 - The pendulous round earth with balanced air In counterpoise ; now ponders all events, Battles, and realms : in these he put two weights, The sequel each of parting and of fight : The latter quick up flew and kick'd the beam...
