it darkened up, and begun to thunder and lighten; so the birds was right about it. Directly it begun to rain, and it rained like all fury, too, and I
never see the wind blow so. It was one of these regular summer storms. It would get so dark that it looked all blue-black outside, and lovely; and
the rain would thrash along by so thick that the trees off a little ways looked dim and spider-webby, and here would come a blast of wind that
would bend the trees down and turn up the pale underside of the leaves, and then a perfect ripper of a gust would follow along and set the
branches to tossing their arms as if they was just wild, and next, when it was just about the bluest and blackest-FST! it was as bright as glory,
and you'd have a little glimpse of tree-tops a-plunging about away off yonder in the storm, hundreds of yards further than you could see before;
dark as sin again in a second, and now you'd hear the thunder let go with an awful crash and then go rumbling, grumbling, tumbling down the
sky towards the under side of the world, like rolling empty barrels down stairs-where it's long stairs and they bounce a good deal, you know...

in the low places and on the Illinois bottom.
