Which three lines in this excerpt from samuel taylor coleridge's "kubla khan" best reflect the theme of chaos and excitement in creation?
but oh that deep romantic chasm which slanted
down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
a savage placel as holy and enchanted
as e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
by woman wailing for her demon-lover!
and from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
as if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
a mighty fountain momently was forced
amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,
or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail:
and 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever
it flung up momently the sacred river.
