TO PAUGUK.
(This is the impersonation of death in Indian mythology. He is represented with a bow and arrows.)
Pauguk! 'tis a scene of woe,
This world of troubles; let me go
Arm'd to show forth the Master's will,
Strike on thy purpose to fulfil.
I fear not death—my only fear
Is ills and woes that press me here.
Want stares me in the face, or woe,
