I am a vessel and a stone,
When I am hot my temper is known,
I have my own money as well as a bank,
If I take a bath the devil you can thank,
I have no mercy when I am cold,
If I am bad ill will shall unfold,
I can be thirsty and have shot many eyes,
In the dead of night as the curdling hound cries.
What am I?
