And now into its airy elements

Resolved is gone; while through the azure depth

Alone in heaven the glorious Moon pursues

Her course appointed, with indifferent beams

Shining upon the silent hills around,

And the dark tents of that unholy host,

Who, all unconscious of impending fate,

Take their last slumber there. The camp is still;

The fires have mouldered, and the breeze which stirs

The soft and snowy embers, just lays bare
