Slight heed obtain'd

This adjuration, wild the glazing eye

Fix'd on the wall,—and ever and anon

The stiffening fingers clutch'd at things unseen,

While from those spent lungs came a shuddering sound,

"That's he! That's he!

The old man! His grey hairs

Dabbled with blood!"

Then in a loud, long cry,

Wrung out by torturing pain,
