ion THb. Public intelligencer. THE STORM. Now's the reign of wild disorder, Hark ! the pelting waters pour ! From the troubled ocean's border Listen to the dreadful roar. ‘Hear the north wind loudly screaming, Scouring with resistless force ; See the rain through no alleys streaming, In a wild, irriguous coarse. This is Hack confusion's hour, . Now he rules the briny main ; And, extending wide his power, Scaite s ruin o’er the plain. See uprooted is the willow, Pines and cedars scatter'd lie ; Hark how cv'ry white-capt Hilo to, Foaming swells toward the sky. How the peasant, quitting labor. When he gains his little cot, Sighing wonders, f his neighbor *. Safely shelter'd is, or not. Faster still the water's pouring } Gloom terrific shades ike sly, . Save before tier thunder's warn g When the vivid lightnings fy. Now upon-the foaming ocean Listen to desponding cries ■, Ships, with quick alternate motion, Downward plunge, again to rise. Long heals;:, now the brine they drink, Now meet more dangerous waves ; And in a moment down they sink, Andfind them watery graves, How many a soul that instant fed, Torn by some ruthless billow ; How many a lifeless mortals's head Lies on a coral pillow. Ah ! hence the seaman Teas that pow'r, JVith supplicating eyes, Which rules the beav’ns, where'er ipey low'r, Portend! cr storms are nigh.
