“Wounds! how they shout!” said Hum, “and there,⁠—see, see,

Th’ ambassador’s return’d from Pigmio!

The morning’s very fine,⁠—uncommonly!

See, past the skirts of yon white cloud they go,

Tinging it with soft crimsons! Now below

The sable-pointed heads of firs and pines

They dip, move on, and with them moves a glow

Along the forest side! Now amber lines

Reach the hill top, and now throughout the valley shines.”
