Note 112 — LORD BYRON: (continued 4)
Reading edition
It is interesting to observe the use to which he afterwards converted these hasty memorandums in his sublime drama of Manfred.
"It is not noon—the sunbow's rays still arch The torrent with the many hues of heaven, And roll the sheeted silver's waving column O'er the crag's headlong perpendicular, And fling its lines of foaming light along, And to and fro, like the pale coursers tail, The Giant steed, to be bestrode by Death As told in the Apocalypse."
