As yawns an earthquake, when imprison'd air Struggles for vent, and lays the centre bare, The whale expands his jaws' enormous size; The prophet views the cavern with surprise; Measures his monstrous teeth, afar descried, And rolls his WOND'ring eyes from side to side: Then takes possession of the spacious seat, And sails secure within the dark retreat.
