Turns stranger. Shudder you? The man must die,

As thousands of our race have died through him.

One blow, and I discharge his weary soul

From the flesh that pollutes it! Let him fill

Straight some new expiatory form, of earth

Or sea, the reptile or some aëry thing:

What is there in his death?

An. My brother said,

Is there no part in it for us?
