‘Arrayed in terrors’ is a bit weird but kinda standard feeling in Christian liturgical language so I guess it’s struck Legge as a natural rendering 

‘Irregular in His ordinations’ is weirder

Unintelligent is weird here, maybe should have gone with unmindful

‘Flushes your face with spirits’ so is this native proud spirits or has the guy turned to drink?

Do cicadas portend anything or are they just loud?

‘Extends to the demon regions’ what fucking demon regions what 

What’s the last couplet doing?
