A feathered serpent in thy breast receive,

Shot from my golden bow; and, inly pained,

Thou vomit forth black froth of murdered men,

Belching the clotted slaughter by thy maw

Insatiate sucked. These halls suit not for thee;

But where beheading, eye-out-digging dooms,[n21]

Abortions, butcheries, barrenness abound,

Where mutilations, flayings, torturings,

Make wretches groan, on pointed stakes impaled,

There fix your seats; there hold the horrid feasts,
