That bade me not despair, but still hope well.

Then die not yet;

For heaven has means to free us; if not me,

Yet these, and you. I am the hunted stag,

Whose life may ransom yours.

Crat. No more of that:

I find your distant drift,—to die alone;

An unkind accusation of us all,

As if we durst not die; I'll not survive you.

Panth. Nor I.
