Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell
Give warning to the world that I am fled
From this vile world with vilest worms to dwell:

The hand that writ it, for I love you so,

And hailed the last resort of

He felt, or deemed he felt, no common glow:
And as the stately vessel glided slow
Beneath the shadow of that ancient mount,
He watched the billows' melancholy flow,

More placid seemed his eye, and smooth his pallid front.
