SHADOWY WATERS.

[SHADOWY WATERS.]

Arthur Darley.

Sailors. And I! And I! And I!

Dectora. Protect me now, gods, that my people swear by.

Dectora. I will end all your magic on the instant.[C]

This sword is to lie beside him in the grave.

It was in all his battles.

I will spread my hair, and wring my hands, and wail him bitterly,

For I have heard that he was proud and laughing, blue-eyed, and a quick runner on bare feet,

And that he died a thousand years ago.

O! O! O!

But no, that is not it.

I knew him well, and while I heard him laughing they killed him at my feet.

O! O! O! O!

For golden-armed Iollan that I loved.

Forgael. Have buried nothing by my golden arms.

Forgael. And knitted mesh to mesh we grow immortal.
