Captain pass'd brother captain by,
Paused, beckon'd, waiting some reply;
But there was none, save look that spoke
Of direful deed; no hint was broke;
But all perceived the army's mood
Foreboded tumult, reif, and blood.
Paused, beckon'd, waiting some reply;
But there was none, save look that spoke
Of direful deed; no hint was broke;
250
Foreboded tumult, reif, and blood.
