Which 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 place! 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.}

Explanation:

The gap certainly is a reference to Chaos, the Greek void condition of the Cosmos before creation. Turmoil does really mean gorge in old Greek. Tumult in Greek folklore was the confounded condition of issue and psyche. A kind of primordial scramble which contained everything that would and could be. As per Greek folklore it was likewise "fuming with constant unrest", implying that the majority of its components were topping off with vitality and going to rise up out of it into creation.

At that point the Earth is and it is "taking in quick thick jeans", at the end of the day the Earth is palpitating with the strife of creation, life and matter and water, and winds spouting and hurrying everywhere throughout the outside of the planet.

Coleridge is clearly utilizing Kubla Khan's Xanadu as a purposeful anecdote for Creation.
