Whose faltering accents tell the exiled chief

To seek on other shores a home for grief.

—Silent the wanderer sat—but on his cheek

The burning glow far more than words might speak;

And, from the kindling of his eye, there broke

Language where all th’ indignant soul awoke,

Till his deep thought found voice: then, calmly stern,

And sovereign in despair, he cried, “Return!

Tell him who sent thee hither, thou hast seen

Marius, the exile, rest where Carthage once hath been!”
