Let her, when hunger peevishly demands
The dainty morsel from her barb'rous hands,
Insult, with hellish mirth, thy craving maw
And snatch it to herself, and call it law,
Till pinching famine waste thee to the bone
And break, at last, that solid heart of stone.
LAY OF THE WANDERING ARAB.
"Away, away, my barb and I,"
As free as wave, as fleet as wind,
