Versos English H. P. Lovecraft The Unknown

English poem

The Unknown

by (1890–1937)

Listen in the reader

A seething sky— A mottled moon— Waves surging high— Storm's raving rune: Wild clouds a-reel— Wild sounds a-shout— Black vapours steal In ghastly rout.

Through rift is shot The moon's wan grace— But God! That blot Upon its face!
