And  reckleds  storms  career  along  the  deep  i 
When  heaving  billows  viuk  to  gulfs  immei»se,

When  vivid  flas  les  round  the  horizon  dart, 
Aiid  tfansieat  gleams  amid  thf*  giooui  impart, 
When  giowling  thunder  roils  m  grandeur  on, 
And  joins  the  winds  in  fullton'd  unison  ;
