The storm is up, and all is on the hazard.
_Julius Caesar, Act v. Sc. 1_. SHAKESPEARE.

Have rived the knotty oaks, and I have seen
The ambitious ocean swell and rage and foam,
To be exalted with the threat'ning clouds.

The rending thunders, as they onward roll,
The loud, loud winds, that o'er the billows sweep--
Shake the firm nerve, appal the bravest soul!

Hew down and fell the hardest-timbered oak.
