She ceased; and after silence, thus the bard.
“Oh! well for him, whom love to duty draws:
Whose spirit is not torn in sunder
By direful conflict of the primal laws:
His shall be th' achievement high,
Whereat the after ages wonder;
The clear peak shining in the upper sky,
The heart of rock that lies the mountains under.”

The clear peak shining in the upper sky,
The heart of rock that lies the mountains under.”
