Long pendent ears, and snout that loves the ground?[[147]]

Not unreveng’d thou diest!—in after times[[148]]

From thy spilt blood shall spring unnumber’d crimes.

Soon shall the slaught’rous arms that wrought thy woe,

Improved by malice, deal a deadlier blow;[[149]]

When social man shall pant for nobler game,

And ’gainst his fellow man the vengeful weapon aim.

As love, as gold, as jealousy inspires,[[150]]
