Deep-breathed and low, yet never sweeter voice

Pour’d forth its hymns in ecstasy to Heaven.

Her hands were bloody, and her garments stain’d

With blood, her face with blood and dust defiled.

Beauty and youth, and grace and majesty,

Had every charm of form and feature given;

But now upon her rigid countenance

Severest anguish set a fixedness

Ghastlier than death.

She led him through the streets
