Thus hallow’d by the memory of the dead:
Alone in beauty and renown—a scene
Whose tints are drawn from freedom’s loveliest ray.
’Tis but a vision now—yet thou hast been
More than the brightest vision might portray;
And every stone, with but a vestige fraught
Of thee, hath latent power to wake some lofty thought.
LXXXI.
Fall’n are thy fabrics, that so oft have rung
To choral melodies and tragic lore;
