And see ! enfeebled by repeated shocks, Those two, who scramble on the adjacent rocks, 116 THE SHIPWRECK. [643 Their faithless hold no longer can retain, They sink o'envhelm'd ! and never rise again.
Two with Arion yet the mast upbore, That now above the ridges reach'd the shore ; Still trembling to descend, they downward gaze With horror pale, and torpid with amaze : The floods recoil ! the ground appears below ! And life's faint embers now rekindling glow ; Awhile they wait the exhausted wave...s' retreat, Then climb slow up the beach withhandsand feet — O Heaven ! deliver'd by whose sovereign hand Still on destruction's brink they shuddering stand, Receive the languid incense they bestow. That, damp with death, appears not yet to glow ; To thee each soul the warm oblation pays With trembling ardour of unequal praise ; In every heart dismay with wonder strives, \ ii 1 hope the sicken'd spark of life revives, Her magic powers their exiled health restore, Till horror and despair are felt no more.
