In every infant's cry of fear,
In every voice, in every ban,
The mind-forged manacles I hear:
How the chimney-sweeper's cry
Every

church appals,
And the hapless soldier's sigh
Runs in blood down palace-walls.

To his offspring who, with mortal frailty,
Engorged with pride in Rome's bravery,
Looked to

Cooling again from his initial ardour,
With which Roman hearts he'd filled completely,
Blew new fires, with ardent breath, and fiercely,

Till, as much time is fled,
Once more the vacant airs with darkness fill,
Once more the wave doth never good nor ill,
And Blank is king, and Nothing works his will;
And leanly sails the day behind the day
To where the Past's lone Rock o'erglooms the spray,
And down its mortal fissures sinks away,
As when the grim-beaked

Across the sunset to their seaward isle
On solemn wings that wave but seldomwhile.

Wants to conceive the jewels of his eyes,

Fills Juno's moist womb with his thrusts:
Now, when the sea, or when violent gusts
Of wind grant way to great ships of war,
And when the nightingale, in forest far,
Renews her

Now, when the meadows and when the flowers
With thousands upon thousands of colours
Paint the breast of the earth so bright all round,
