And the hell-hounds tore his living heart.

And the angels cursed great Lucifer

For his purple flame consumed their lands

Till golden ways were desert sands;

They hurled him down, afar, apart.

The Punishment.

Beneath where the Gulfs of Silence end,

Where never sighs nor songs descend,

Never a hell-flare in his eyes

Alone, alone, afar he lies....
