The yellow sky grows vivid as the sun	A
The sea glittering and the hills dun	A
	-
The stones quiver Twenty pounds of lead	B
Fold upon fold the air laps my head	B
	-
Both eyes scorch tongue stiff and bitter	C
Flies buzz but no birds twitter	C
Slow bullocks stand with stinging feet	D
And naked fishes scarcely stir for heat	D
	-
White as smoke	E
As jetted steam dead clouds awoke	E
And quivered on the Western rim	F
Then the singing started dim	F
And sibilant as rime stiff reeds	G
That whistle as the wind leads	G
The South whispered hard and sere	H
The North answered low and clear	H
And thunder muffled up like drums	I
Beat whence the East wind comes	I
The heavy sky that could not weep	J
Is loosened rain falls steep	J
And thirty singing furies ride	K
To split the sky from side to side	K
	-
They sing and lash the wet flanked wind	L
Sing from Col to Hafod Mynd	L
And fling their voices half a score	M
Of miles along the mounded shore	M
Whip loud music from a tree	N
And roll their p an out to sea	N
Where crowded breakers fling and leap	J
And strange things throb five fathoms deep	J
	-
The sudden tempest roared and died	L
The singing furies muted ride	L
Down wet and slippery roads to hell	O
And silent in their captors' train	P
Two fishers storm caught on the main	P
A shepherd battered with his flocks	Q
A pit boy tumbled from the rocks	Q
A dozen back broke gulls and hosts	R
Of shadowy small pathetic ghosts	R
Of mice and leverets caught by flood	L
Their beauty shrouded in cold mud	L
