" Hark ! Jove the Avenger answers ! lo ! the heavens With shuddering clouds are filled and lightnings leap Through their gored bosoms and the thunder shaft Bickers along the air great Jove beholds And hears now wither, thou blaspheming slave !" Awed yet untrembling, Pansa calm replied. " Ye hear no thunder but Destruction's howl ! Ye see no lightning but the lava glare Of desolation sweeping o'er your pride ! Death is beneath, around, above, within All who exult to inflict it on my heart, And y...e must meet it, fly when, where' ye will, For in the madness of your cruelties Ye have delayed till every hope is dead. Let the doom come ! our faiths will soon be tried. Gigantic spectres from their shadowy thrones, With ghastly smiles to welcome ye, arise. The Pharaohs and Ptolemies uplift Their glimmering sceptres o'er ye bidding all CANTO III. ] OFPOMPEII. 1 51) Bare their dark bosoms to the Omniscient God : And every strange and horrid mythos waits To fold ye in the terrors of its dreams.
For thee, proud Praetor !
