the exception of the Ebro; smiling meadows, orange-groves

When force of wind, a-cold and hurtled forth

Without all fire, hath strook somewhere amain-

No marvel, because, when with terrific stroke

'Thas smitten, the elements of fiery-stuff

Can stream together from out the very wind

And, simultaneously, from out that thing

Which then and there receives the stroke: as flies

The fire when with the steel we hack the stone;
