Whereof some live spark haply lurks 'mid the embers

Which choke in my brain. Talk of "Gilead and balm"?

I mind me, sung half through, this gave such a qualm

To Asmodeus inside of a Hussite, that, queasy,

He broke forth in brimstone with curses. I'm strong

In—at least the commencement: the rest should go easy,

Friends helping. "Ne pulvis et ignis" ...

Sixth Friend. All wrong!

Fifth Friend. I 've conned till I captured the whole.

Seventh Friend. Get along!
