  1. (continued from previous page)
    While you have slain the righteous with one resistless blow.
    4.
    The helpless little maiden, who now survives them all,
    On you my dearest reader for sympathy doth call,
    To hear her shrieks of anguish and to see her raving, roam
    Around the rusty quagmire where stood her blissful home.
