think, King, where thy own will be 1 He rests in peace ; f 122 BOWLSS' POEMS. But erca a spot is to thj bones denied ; 845 I see thj carcase trodden under foot ; Thy children — his, with filial reverence. Still think upon the spot where he is laid. Though distant and far severed — ^but thy son,^ Thjr eldest born, ah 1 see, he lifts the sword 85o ' Against his father's breast ! Hark, hark I the chase Is up ! in that wild forest thou hast made ! The deer is flying — ^the loud horn resounds — Hurr...ah ! the arrow that laid Harold low, It flies, it trembles in the Red Ring's heart !^ Norman, Heaven's hand is on thee, and the curse Of this devoted land ! Hence, to thy throne ! The king a moment with compassion gazed, And now the clarions, and the horns, and trumps Rang louder ; the bright banners in the winds 3co Waved beautiful ; the neighing steeds aloft Mantled their manes, and up the valley flew. And soon have lefb behind the glen, the cave Of solitary Editha, and sounds Of her last agony !
