That slept in his what time my lips they burn'd.

Out from their graves his oaths spoke back in thunder!

The perjury stalk'd like murder in the sun—

For ever—God!--sense, reason, soul, sunk under—

The deed was done!

Francis, O Francis! league on league, shall chase thee

The shadows hurrying grimly on thy flight—

Still with their icy arms they shall embrace thee,

And mutter thunder in thy dream's delight!
