A CAP OF LEAD ACROSS THE SKY, by             Poem Explanation     Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Of winter and of hell
Subject(s): Storms


A Cap of Lead across the sky
Was tight and surly drawn
We could not find the mighty Face
The Figure was withdrawn -

A Chill came up as from a shaft
Our noon became a well
A Thunder storm combines the charms
Of Winter and of Hell.
