Made lightnings in the splendor of the moon,
And flashing round and round, and whirled in an arch,
Shot like a streamer of the northern morn,
Seen where the moving isles of winter shock By night, with noises of the northern sea,
So flashed and fell the brand Excalibur.


Morte d'Arthur (1842), l. 136
