With dread.

Week," p. 181 https://books.google.ca/books?id=pcAFFu1rUqIC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false So shall you see a Cloud-crown'd Hill somtime, / Torn from a greater by the waste of Time; / Dreadly to shake, and boundling down to hop, / And roaring, here it roules tall Cedars up;

[…] when high in Air / The chos'n Archangel rides, whose right hand weilds / Th'imperial standard of heav'n's providence, / Which dreadly sweeping thro' the vaulted sky / O'ershadows all creation.
