    The waves were dead; the tides were in their grave,
    The Moon, their Mistress, had expired before;
    The winds were wither'd in the stagnant air,
    And the clouds perish'd; darkness had no need
    Of aid from them--she was the Universe.

Or, if there were a sympathy in choice,
War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it,
Making it momentany as a sound,
Swift as a shadow, short as any dream,
Brief as the lightning in the collied night,
That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth,
And ere a man hath power to say 'Behold!'
The jaws of darkness do devour it up:
So quick bright things come to confusion.
