Canto XXXV. Tárá's Speech.

He ceased: and Tárá starry-eyed

Thus to the angry prince replied:

“Not to my lord shouldst thou address

A speech so fraught with bitterness:

Not thus reproached my lord should be,

And least of all, O Prince, by thee.

He is no thankless coward—no—

With spirit dead to valour's glow.

From paths of truth he never strays,
