48 THE DOOM OF MAC DIARMID.
With battered armour, wearied steed, Wounds that at every motion bleed, No more of battle's toil they heed, But, foiled again, retreat.
Then might be seen from hill to stream, By the mild evening sun's red beam, The relics of the fight The sloping hill with dead bestrewed An Afghan party here pursued, For none the combat fierce renewed, But wished the coming night. Some to the grove for safety fled, Whose deepening shade a covert spread- Some further haunts explore. ...Vast numbers to the river pressed, By thirst, fatigue, and heat distressed, And in its cooling waves immersed, Plunge deep, to rise no more.
At length night's sable wings o'ershield The fugitive, and dim the field ; While stars, unnumbered, beam from heaven, To orbs more grateful kindly given.
Faint was their light, reflected here From shattered helm and broken spear, As if their pure beams paled to read Man's frantic ire and ruthless deed ; They called the breeze of night between To cloud the page, obscure the scene.
