XXX.
It was a dreary time; that deep midnight,Which saw those warriors to their chargers spring,
And, sadly gathering by the torch's light,
Draw up their squadrons round their ruin'd king:
Then, through the streets, long, silent, slumbering,
Move like some secret noble funeral:
Each forced in turn to feel his bosom wring,
As in the gleam shone out his own proud hall,
His own no more;—no more!—he had abandon'd all!
