Roy Harper and the Hurricane

Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!
You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout
Till you have drench'd our steeples, drown'd the cocks!
You sulphurous and thought-executing fires,
Vaunt-couriers to oak-cleaving thunderbolts,
Singe my white head! And thou, all-shaking thunder,
Smite flat the thick rotundity o' the world!
Crack nature's moulds, an germens spill at once,
That make ingrateful man!
But do not make this expectant man ingrateful
by stopping him getting to Roy Harper’s gig
tonight in Bristol!


And he does actually look like he'd make a good Lear......
