and through the large foundries and factories he
extends his hard limbs, whose joints and parts
consist of wheel within wheel, chains, bars, and
thick iron wires. Enter, and see how the
glowing iron masses are formed into long bars.
Bloodless spins the glowing bar! see how the
shears cut into the heavy metal plates; they cut
as quietly and as softly as if the plates were paper.
Here where he hammers, the sparks fly from the
anvil. See how he breaks the thick iron bars; he
breaks them into lengths; it is as if it were
a stick of sealing-wax that is broken. The
long iron bars rattle before your feet; iron plates
are planed into shavings; before you rolls the
large wheel, and above your head runs living
wire – long heavy wire! There is a hammering
and buzzing, and if you look around in the large
open yard, amongst great up-turned copper
boilers, for steam-boats and locomotives,
Bloodless also here stretches out one of his
fathom-long fingers, and hauls away. Everything
is living; man alone stands and is silenced
by – stop!
