Herman Melville - The Apparition: A RetrospectHerman Melville - The Apparition: A Retrospect
Work rating: Low


Convulsions came; and, where the field  Long slept in pastoral green, A goblin-mountain was upheaved (Sure the scared sense was all deceived),  Marl-glen and slag-ravine.   The unreserve of Ill was there,  The clinkers in her last retreat; But, ere the eye could take it in, Or mind could comprehension win,  It sunk! and at our feet.   So, then, Solidity`s a crust  The core of fire below; All may go well for many a year, But who can think without a fear  Of horrors that happen so?
