His cry of triumph, hers of terror:

Down, down, careering, headlong borne,

Dashed on the rocks, disjointed, torn,

The chieftain found his vengeance sworn,

The maid atoned her first, last error.

The waves, the broken rocks that lave,

Received them to a restless grave,

Whose mangled forms, unclasping never,

Move with the moving tide forever.
