The Judgement of the Flood | ||
He paused; but answer none his auditours
Had ready; mute with awe, and fixed to hear.
Then he resumed.
Had ready; mute with awe, and fixed to hear.
Then he resumed.
‘I go to Armon hence,
To Noah, and his house: there would I have
Your witness to the words, I bear in charge
To utter; and confirm them to the world,
That doubts the man who hath with me found grace.’
To Noah, and his house: there would I have
Your witness to the words, I bear in charge
To utter; and confirm them to the world,
That doubts the man who hath with me found grace.’
With this, he led them by the hand, and they
In silence yielded, unreluctantly,
And on each side attended him along.
Beautiful Armon: There, assembled, now,
The family of Noah. Chava sage
Rejoices in her sons, a second Eve,
The mother of a world; nor less in you,
Her duteous daughters, lovely in your love,
Fair in affection; a domestic group,
A touching scene; but more pathetic made
By majesty of age, Methuselah,
Oldest of men, nor dying but with earth.
In silence yielded, unreluctantly,
And on each side attended him along.
