Like Rain it sounded till it swelledswelledcurvedAnd then weweI knew 'twas Wind --It walked as wet as any WaveBut swept as dry as sand --When it had pushed itself awayTo some remotest PlainA coming as of Hosts was heardThat was indeed the Rain --It filled the Wells, it pleased the PoolsIt warbled in the Road --It pulled the spigot from the HillsAnd let the Floods abroad --It loosened acres, lifted seasThe sites of Centres stirredThen like Elijah rode awayUpon a Wheel of Cloud.
