So the rock, Unmindful of the passion of the sea, Awaits its end ; it scorns the sun's caress. The wind's advances and the lightning's hate. And now the heights were silent. Cloud on cloud. With fleecy shoulders leaning each to each, Took for the night their stations, while the winds Remain'd without and roam'd, disconsolate. The starry highways. One by splendid one The gods lay down to wait Aurora's call To see the dawnburst, note with ecstasy The modest flower's unfolding, and delight In that... first note with which the happy bird Heralds the day and all its promises.
