The stake was raised. And with the speed of hate, The unanimity of men in wrong, All rushed to aid the work. Some faggots brought, And piled them round the stake ; some broken casks, And forms, and chairs, and implements of wood; Some poured on tar ; some quenchless turpentine : Some made them torches of the free-brought hemp ; Some brought the ropes to bind him to the stake ; Men, women, little children even joined the work, And each 'gainst each with bitter envy strove, Who most his hatred an...d his zeal should show. So all that ruthless crowd, swayed by one thought. Inspired by one absorbing aim, and led By fierce unbridled passion, thus became An old man's executioner.
The work went on. But he, the victim of this fatal haste, 92 THE DEATH OF ST. POLYCARP.
Stood rapt in all the ecstacy of prayer. He heeded not these fearful preparations. His eyes were fixed on heaven, and his heart Received the strength of those who trust in God. He held his hands in supplicating form, But not to man.
