When day's
oppression
is not eas'd by night,
But day by night and night by day oppress'd,
And each, though enemies to either's reign,
Do in consent shake hands to torture me,

How far I toil, still farther off from thee.

Where the darkest

Death in the air all round,
And the black torpedoes beneath!

Were strewn rich gifts, unknown to any Muse,
Though Fancy's casket were unlock'd to choose.
