from The Romance of the Lily
Young Balthasar is the Libyan king,
The lord of wizard sages;
He hath read the sun, he hath read the moon,
Heaven's thoughts are on their pages;
He knows the meaning of night and noon
And the spell on morning's wings;
The ocean he hath studied well,
Its maddest waves he hath subdued
Beneath an icy yoke,
And lashed them till they howled, and spoke
The mysteries of the Titan brood
And all their god forbade them tell.
He hath beheld the storm
When the phantom of its form
Leans out of heaven to trace
Upon the earth and sea
And air's cerulean face
In earthquake, thunder, war, and fire,
And pestilence, and madness dire,
That mighty woe, futurity.
– Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1825)
