    Do you see yonder cloud that's almost in shape of a camel?
    By th' mass and 'tis, like a camel indeed.
    Methinks it is like a weasel.
    It is backed like a weasel.
    Or like a whale.
    Very like a whale.

Who covereth thyself with light as a garment: who stretchest out
the heavens like a curtain:
Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh
the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
Who maketh his angels spirits: his ministers a flaming fire:
Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be
removed for ever.
