Upbelched from his deep-hidden crypts is a fountain + 

Of pure white fire none dare draw nigh. + 

In the day from the lava-flood rifting the mountain + 

Is the lurid smoke uptossed to the sky; + 

In the darkness a red-rolling flame flares high + 

As it sweepeth the rocks with thunderous crashing + 

To the sea that afar below doth lie. + 

’Tis the monster upspurting through anguish-gnashing + 

Jaws that fire-fountain fearfully flashing⁠— + 

A wondrous portent appalling the eye, + 

A marvel to hear when men pass by; + 
