Go where men lay on men the doom of blood,
Heads lopped from necks, eyes from their Sphere plucked out,
Hacked flesh, the flower of

Feet hewn away, and hands, and death beneath
The smiting stone, low moans and piteous
Of men impaled--Hark, hear ye for what feast
Ye hanker ever, and the loathing gods
Do spit upon your craving?

High reard their royall throne in Britane land, 580
And vanquisht them, unable to withstand:

There as thou slepst in tender swadling band,
And her base Elfin brood there for thee left.

The Seven Selves
In the stillest hour of the night, as I lay half asleep, my seven
