Then shouted the Argives aloud, with a sound as of breakers that roar
When the South-wind hurleth the waves on the cliffs of an ironbound shore,
When the crags of the headland are lashed evermore by the surge mad-leaping
'Neath the scourge of the winds as from this side and that side their wings come sweeping.

— Arthur Way The Iliad of Homer, done into English verse (1885)
