From off the pegs where Bruin threw it,

And o'er her quaking body drew it;

Nor how each act could so befall:

I'll only swear she did them all;

Then lingered pensive in the grot,

As if she something had forgot,

Till a humble voice and a voice of pride

Were heard, in murmurs of love, outside.

Then, like a rocket set aflight,

She sprang, and streaked it for the light!
