He wandered all over Europe in search of art treasures

To him that erstwhile ne'er a larger saw;

Thus, huge seems tree or man; and everything

Which mortal sees the biggest of each class,

That he imagines to be "huge"; though yet

All these, with sky and land and sea to boot,

Are all as nothing to the sum entire

At last how yonder suddenly angered flame

Out-blows abroad from vasty furnaces
