NUMBER:7973
AUTHOR:Frederick William Henry Myers (1843– ?)
QUOTATION:Look when the clouds are blowing
  And all the winds are free:
In fury of their going
  They fall upon the sea.
But though the blast is frantic,
  And though the tempest raves,
The deep immense Atlantic
  Is still beneath the waves. 1 
ATTRIBUTION:Wind, Moon and Tides.
 
Note 1.
Shakespeare: Henry V, act iv. sc. i.
There is some soul of goodness in things evil
Would men observingly distil it out. [back]
