And thou, who thereStandest, live spirit! get thee hence, and leaveThese who are dead. " But soon as he beheldI left them not, "By other way, " said he, "By other haven shalt thou come to shore, Not by this passage; thee a nimbler boatMust carry. " Then to him thus spake my guide:"Charon! thyself torment not: so 't is will'd, Where will and power are one: ask thou no more. " Straightway in silence fell the shaggy cheeksOf him the boatman o'er the livid lake, Around whose eyes glar'd wheeling fl...ames. MeanwhileThose spirits, faint and naked, color chang'd, And gnash'd their teeth, soon as the cruel wordsThey heard. God and their parents they blasphem'd, The human kind, the place, the time, and seedThat did engender them and give them birth.
Then all together sorely wailing drewTo the curs'd strand, that every man must passWho fears not God. Charon, demoniac form, With eyes of burning coal, collects them all, Beck'ning, and each, that lingers, with his oarStrikes. As fall off the light autumnal leaves, One still another following, till the boughStrews all its honours on the earth beneath; E'en in like manner Adam's evil broodCast themselves one by one down from the shore, Each at a beck, as falcon at his call.
