To face;—but, oh! far otherwise anon,
When my heart sinks and sinks to depths untold,
Till Being seems no deeper depth to hold,
Unfathomed by the line of my despair;
And with my spirit so it now doth fare.

“O God, that I had fall’n with them who fell
In that disastrous conflict by Tangiers!
Oh happy you, my brethren, ending well!
