T l c Fctcp I r c a m . A fever scorched my body, fired my bnin! Like lava in Vesuvius, boiled my blood Wiihm ihe plo wing caverns of my heart ! I ragd with thirst, and begged a cold, clear draught Of fountain water. 'Twas with tears denied. drank a nauseous febrifuge, and slept: lint rested not: harrassed with horrid dreams Of burning deserts, and of dusty plains, Mountains disgorging Times forests on fire, Steam, sun-shine, smoke. r.nd boiling lakes

Hills of hot sand, and glow ing stones that seemed Embers and ashes of a burnt u n world ! Thirst raged within rnc. t sought the deepest vale, And called on alt the rocks and caves for water ; 1 climbed a mountain, and from cli.Vto cliff Pursued a flying cloud howling for water : I crusled the withered herbs, & gnawed dry roof?, Still crying, Water! water! While the clifls and caves In horrid mockery, re-echoed "Water P TV-low t lie mountain gleamed a city, red With solar fl me, upon the sandy bank Of a broad river. "Soon, Oh soonP I cried "Ell cool myburninubody in thtt flood, And qiwlTmy fiil!M I ran 1 reached the shore The the river was dried up.

Where sunk "th'i channel deepest. 1 Ivhdd A stirring multitude of human forms, And heard a flint, wild, lamentable w.iil, Ti.iiher I sped, and joined the general cry Ofwa-.M!-" The Lad delved, a sp.-cious pi In search of hidden fountains ssd.s .d sigt.i ! I saw them rend the rocks up, in their rage, With mad impatience calling on the earth To ope? and vield up her cooling fountains. Meanwhile the skies on which they dare not g z tS'ood o-r ilvMiilike a canopy of brass UndimmsHl by moisture. The red dog-star raged. And PiiOL'hns from the house of Virgo shot Flis seorchim: sh-.fts. The thirsty multitude. Grew still more frantic. Those who dug the earth Tell lifeless on the rocks they strained to up heave, And filled Hgain. with their own caresses, Ttiepits tltey mide-undm;! their own work! J-spnrat length drove out the la!nrers, " At sight of whom i gener .l groan announced The death f iidv! Ah! now no more w Iieard d the cv of "water !" To the city nxt. Howling, we van all burryingwithoot aim: Thence to ihe wo:ds. T.'io bake! plain gaped vor moisture, And from its avid breast heaved smoke, ih seemed The brea'h of fmnaee fierce vole'nie fire, Or hr-t monsoon, tint raises Syrian suvls Toe.luuds.

And horrid !init arose of "Blood! hie). : !! blood UP We fell upon ihetn with a tigers thirst, And drank up blithe blood tint was not hu man! We were dyed in blood ! Despair vetured ; The cry of blood w s liushed, and dumb confusion reigned. Even then, when hope was dead! past hop.-. I heard a laugh! md saw a wretched man Rp his own veins, and bb-oding, drink With eager j -y The example seized on sll : E eh fell upon himse;f, tearing his cins Fiercely in search of blood! And some there were, Who, hiving emptied their own veins, did seize Upon their neighbors' arms, and slew them for their blood! Oh! happy then were mothers who gave suck: Tii,-y dashed their little infants from their bre-sts, Aiv'l thir shrunk bosoms tortured to extract The b.-.hny juice, O ! exquisitely sweet To their pitched t-ngues! 'Tisdone! now all is gone! Blood, water, nd th bosom nectar, all! "R nd,Oh!ye lightnings' the sealed firmament, And floe! a burning world '.Rain ! rain ! pour ! pour! Open, ye windows of high ho -..vent and pour Th mighty deduct ! Lot us drown,&. drink luxurious death! Ye earthquake's split the globe, The solid rock-ribbed globe! and lay all bare Its subterr nean rivers, and fresh seas!" Thus raged the multitude: And many fell In fierce convulsions many slew themselves. And now I suv the city all in fl t-nes The forest burning and the very earth on fire! I saw the mountains open with a roar, Loud as the seven Apocalyptic thunders, And sees of lava rolling headlong down, Through crackling forests, fierce, and hot as Hell, Down to 'he plain!
