Explanation:
In the fourth stanza, the speaker looks at the dangerous side of a comet. As mentioned before, a comet that comes too close to earth can put the earth in danger, as certain comets are powerful enough to destroy our planet.
Depending on the comet’s size, a collision between the earth and comet can cause huge destruction on local to global scales.
The speaker says that a comet could create earthquakes. When a comet gets closer to the earth's surface, the atmosphere will shake, and shockwaves will reach the ground, causing the earth to shake.
