She saw Hermanrick's quiv'ring lips,

She mark'd his rolling eye;

She faints, she falls; before her sight

Death's visions dimly fly.

"And, O thou dear and much-lov'd youth,"

The dying virgin cried;

"Howe'er in life I wrong'd thy truth,

Yet true with thee I died."

She spoke no more—e'en Hubba felt

The force of love sincere;
