For such as having wandered from their way,

Had perished miserably. Side by side,

Within they lie, a mournful company,

All in their shrouds, no earth to cover them;

Their features full of life yet motionless

In the broad day, nor soon to suffer change,

Though the barred windows, barred against the wolf,

Are always open!—But the North blew cold;

And bidden to a spare but cheerful meal,

I sate among the holy Brotherhood
