We may escape. Come. Nay, this cannot be.

Ah, God!—not this. Have pity; undo it, revoke;

O let thy hand for once undo.

Thou mightest, O Thou mightest. Ah, how cold.

Oh! oh! he is murdered. Blood, his blood. ’Tis true.

Dead, and my dream, my fate, my love; ’tis done.

The end. Nay, God, as Thou art God, I trust Thee;

Take me with him. Here in this bower of death

I leave my body,—to this pitiless world

Of hate: and to thy peaceful shores of joy
