Pater Omnipotens Poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Pater Omnipotens

Rating: 2.9


Serene in his unconquerable might
Endued[,] the Almighty King, his steadfast throne
Encompassed unapproachably with power
And darkness and deep solitude an awe
Stood like a black cloud on some aery cliff
Embosoming its lightning—in his sight
Unnumbered glorious spirits trembling stood
Like slaves before their Lord—prostrate around
Heaven’s multitudes hymned everlasting praise.

The words were heavy and clumsy in this piece- - it's not like Shelley to be so turgid. - - - - Serene in his unconquerable might Endued[, ] the Almighty King, his steadfast throne Encompassed unapproachably with power
