Note 64 — Chapter I · THE TREATMENT OF NATURE IN ENGLISH CLASSICAL POETRY
Reading edition
For a Tempest take Eurus, Zephyr, Auster and Boreas and cast them together in one verse; add to these rain and lightning, quantum sufficit: mix your clouds and billows well together till they foam, and thicken your description here and there with a quicksand. Brew your tempest well in your head before you set it a blowing. “The Art of Sinking in Poetry.”
