Darkness gathers around, far distant thunder rolls over the trembling hills ; the black clouds with august majesty and power, moves slowly forwards, shading regions of towering hills, and threatening all the destructions of a thunderstorm ; all around is now still as death, not a whisper is heard, but a total inactivity and silence seems to pervade the earth ; the birds afraid to utter a chirrup, and in low tremulous voices take leave of each other, seeking covert and safety ; every insect is silenced, and nothing heard but the roaring of the approaching hurricane ; the mighty cloud now expands its sable wings, extending from North to South, and is driven irresistibly on by the tumultuous winds, spreading his livid wings around the gloomy concave, armed with terrors of thunder and fiery shafts of lightning ; now the lofty forests bend low beneath its fury, their limbs and wavy boughs are tossed about and catch hold of each other ; the mountains tremble and seem to reel about, and the ancient hills to be shaken to their foundations: the furious storm sweeps along, smoaking through the vale and over the resounding hills ; the face of the earth is obscured by the deluge descending from the firmament, and I am deafened by the din of thunder ; the tempestuous scene damps my spirits, and my horse sinks under me at the tremendous peals, as I hasten for the plain.
