A Thought suggested by a View of Saddleback in Cumberland
 On stern Blencartha's perilous height
   The winds are tyrannous and strong;
 And flashing forth unsteady light
 From stern Blencartha's skiey height,
   As loud the torrents throng!
 Beneath the moon, in gentle weather,
 They bind the earth and sky together.
But oh! the sky and all its forms, how quiet!
The things that seek the earth, how full of noise and riot!
   The winds are tyrannous and strong;
 And flashing forth unsteady light
 From stern Blencartha's skiey height,
   As loud the torrents throng!
 Beneath the moon, in gentle weather,
 They bind the earth and sky together.
But oh! the sky and all its forms, how quiet!
The things that seek the earth, how full of noise and riot!
