Some heartless shout, some pity, all condemn,

While he in fancied envy looks at them:

He seems the place for that sad act to see,

And dreams the very thirst which then will be:

A priest attends - it seems, the one he knew

In his best days, beneath whose care he grew.

At this his terrors take a sudden flight,

He sees his native village with delight;

The house, the chamber, where he once array’d

His youthful person; where he knelt and pray’d:
