With the slow step of sorrow, troubled not

By the rude multitude, save, here and there,

A look of vague inquiry, or a curse

Half-mutter'd by some haughty Turk whose sleeve

Had touch'd the tassel of the Christian's pall

And Israel too pass'd on—the trampled Jew!

Israel!—who made Jerusalem a throne

For the wide world—pass'd on as carelessly;

Giving no look of interest to tell

The shrouded dead was any thing to her.
