A mother drew close to her breast
The babe that had so loudly wept,
And soon they both had sunk to rest.
And now the giant loudly called;
“Come forth, ye creatures of the damn’d
And in this pit, so strangely walled,
I’ll torture you, as I have planned,
Forever you shall weep and cry—
’Twill be sweet music in my ears—
For you shall never, never die
