And we hang thee high in air.

To arms—to arms, my faithful Archers,

Without the rousing war-pipes sound,

My Cavaliers, and trusty foot-men,

Haste the grove to circle round!’

It is not yet the glow of mid-day,

Loud and long the bell doth boom!

It is not yet the gloom of midnight,

Walk they both to meet their doom!

To the sound of Ave-Marias,
