All earth was but one thought--and that was death

Band Members: The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars did wander darkling in the eternal space, rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth swung blind and blackening in the moonless air; morn came and went--and came, and brought no day, and men forgot their passions in the dread of this their desolation; and all hearts were chill'd into a selfish prayer for light
Influences: and they did live by watchfires--and the thrones, the palaces of crowned kings--the huts, the habitations of all things which dwell, were burnt for beacons; cities were consumed, and men were gathered round their blazing homes to look once more into each other's face; happy were those who dwelt within the eye of the volcanos, and their mountain-torch... a fearful hope was all the world contain'd; forests were set on fire--but hour by hour they fell and faded--and the crackling trunks extinguish'd with a crash--and all was black.
Sounds Like: the world was void, the populous and the powerful--was a lump, seasonless, herbless, treeless, manless, lifeless-- a lump of death--a chaos of hard clay. the rivers, lakes, and ocean all stood still, and nothing stirred within their silent depths; ships sailorless lay rotting on the sea, and their masts fell down piecemeal: as they dropp'd they slept on the abyss without a surge-- the waves were dead; the tides were in their grave, the moon their mistress had expir'd before; the winds were withered in the stagnant air, and the clouds perish'd; Darkness had no need of aid from them--She was the Universe.
