THE CLOUDS THEIR BACKS TOGETHER LAID, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Nor vengance ever comes
Subject(s): Nature


The Clouds their Backs together laid
The North begun to push
The Forests galloped till they fell
The Lightning played like mice

The Thunder crumbled like a stuff
How good to be in Tombs
Where Nature's Temper cannot reach
Nor vengance ever comes
