Ere now dog-dead he lies. His sword hath proved

Too much for him. Yet! let him lie in state,

The great king, Arthur!—But, regenerate,

Now crown our other monarch, Accolon!

And, with him, Love, the ermined! balmy son

Of gods, not men; and nobler hence to rule.

Love, Love almighty; beautiful to school

The hearts and souls of mortals!—Then this realm's

Iron-huskéd flower of war,—that overwhelms

The world with havoc,—will explode and bloom
