Gustave Dore - And God said Let the waters generate Reptile with spawn abundant living soul And let fowl

Gustave Dore - And seems a moving land and at his gills Draws in and at his trunk spouts out a sea

Gustave Dore - Meanwhile the tepid caves and fens and shores Their brood as numerous hatch

Gustave Dore - And now on earth the seventh Evening arose in Eden

Gustave Dore - In with the river sunk and with it rose Satan

Gustave Dore - O Earth how like to Heaven if not preferred More justly

Gustave Dore - Nor only tears Rained at their eyes but high winds worse within Began to rise

Gustave Dore - They heard And from His presence hid themselves amoung The thickest trees

Gustave Dore - And now expecting Each hour their great adventurer from the search Of foreign worlds

Gustave Dore - Dreadful was the din Of hissing through the hall thick swarming now With complicated monst

Gustave Dore - This said they both betook them several ways

Gustave Dore - The heavenly bands Down from a sky of jasper lighted now In Paradise

Gustave Dore - Began to build a vessel of huge bulk

Gustave Dore - All dwellings else Flood overwhelmed and them with all their pomp Deep under water rolled
