As awaked from the dead;
And, amazed, he stares around!
“Revenge! revenge!” Timotheus cries—
See the Furies arise!
See the snakes that they rear,
How they hiss in the air,
And the sparkles that flash from their eyes!
Behold a ghastly band,
Each a torch in his hand!
Those are Grecian ghosts that in battle were slain,
