Through the veil’d empires of eternity—

A voice to cleave them! By the mournful truth,

By the lost promise of my blighted youth.

By the strong chain a mighty love can bind

On the beloved, the spell of mind o’er mind;

By words, which in themselves are magic high,

Armed, and inspired, and wing’d with agony;

By tears, which comfort not, but burn, and seem

To bear the heart’s blood in their passion-stream;

I summon’d, I adjured!—with quicken’d sense,
