A Haliaëtus he's done to death!

Haunt him and harry, ossifrage and osprey!

Hoot, owl! Croak havoc, raven!

He of that wave-beat haven

Should—like the Ancient, of the Albatross—pray

For tardy pardon till his latest breath!

Soon will the Sea-earn join the vanished band

Of Garefowl, Æpyornis, Dodo, Moa!

And e'en the merry mavis

Will rank as rara avis
