[No wily fiend, by magic spell]

Saul perceived that it was Samuel. —xxviii. 14.

No wily fiend, by magic spell
Evoked from his infernal cell,
To personate the prophet true,
But Samuel's self appears in view;

To make the prostrate king relent,
Humbly accept his punishment,
To warn him of his instant doom,
But not denounce the wrath to come.
