He cannot fly that fearful dream,

Which in the dusky night will seem

To float before his slumb'ring gaze

To fright his heart, and thoughts amaze.

The Abbot fills him, too, with fear;

He fancies he is always near,

He cannot from his presence get,

But feels like some one dunn'd for debt.

And trembles when he meets those eyes

That love to catch him by surprise.
