“And thou, Leviathan! on ocean's brim
“Hugest of living things that sleep and swim;
“Thou, in whose nose by Burke's gigantic hand
“The hook was fix'd to drag thee to the land
“With, ------, and ------ in thy train,
“And ------ wallowing in the yeasty main,
“Still as ye snort, and puff, and spout, and blow,
“In puffing, and in spouting, praise Lepaux!’
