ye sleepy Titans all.
Do ye forget the blows, the buffets vile ?
Are ye not smitten by a youngling arm ?
Dost thou forget, sham Monarch of the Waves, Thy scalding in the seas ? What, have I rous'd 320 Your spleens with so few simple words as these I O joy ! for now I see ye are not lost : O joy ! for now I see a thousand eyes Wide-glaring for revenge ! ' — As this he said, He lifted up his stature vast, and stood, Still without intermission speaking thus : ' Now ye are flames, I'll tell you how... to burn, And purge the ether of our enemies ; How to feed fierce the crooked stings of fire, And singe away the swollen clouds of Jove, 330 Stifling that puny essence in its tent.
let him feel the evil he hath done ; For though I scorn Oceanus's lore, Much pain have I for more than loss of realms : The days of peace and slumberous calm are fled ; Those days, all innocent of scathing war, When all the fair Existences of heaven Came open-eyed to guess what we would speak : — That was before our brows were taught to frown, Before our lips knew else but solemn sounds ; 340 That was before we knew the winged thing, Victory, might be lost, or might be won.
