Clucked out dry time in unctuous jets,

Saw angry Jose thro' the grate

Glare on us a pale face of hate,

When some indecent colonel there

Presumed too lewdly for his ear.

Some still night in Seville; the street,

Candilejo; two shadows meet—

Flash sabres; crossed within the moon,—

Clash rapidly—a dead dragoon.
