 2     8|       conflagration with a sudden rain,~Which haply human art had
 3     9|          But, swoln with mountain rain and melted snows,~Then thundered,
 4    11|       seen to rise,~Pregnant with rain and storm, which seems withal~
 5    11|          veil, looks out amid the rain.~And as the nightingale
