Astonied stood and Blank, while horror chill 890
Ran through his veins, and all his joynts relax'd;
From his slack hand the Garland wreath'd for Eve

Speechless he stood and pale, till thus at length
First to himself he inward silence broke.

Some made a mad and helpless rush, some stood stark and straight,
A few fell at once, shot in the temple or heart, the living and dead
lay together,
The maim'd and mangled dug in the dirt, the new-comers saw them there,
Some half-kill'd attempted to crawl away,
These were despatch'd with

A youth not seventeen years old seiz'd his assassin till two more

The three were all torn and cover'd with the boy's blood.
