The monstropolous beast had left his bed. The two hundred miles a hour wind had loosed his chains. He seized hold of his dikes and ran forward until he met the quarters; uprooted them like grass and rushed on after his supposed-to-be conquerors, rolling the dikes, rolling the houses, rolling the people in the houses along with other timbers. The sea was walking the earth with a heavy heel.

The monstropolous beast had left his bed. The two hundred miles a hour wind had loosed his chains.

The sea was walking the earth with a heavy heel. Zora Neale Hurston
