The Sea-King | ||
XXV.
“His spirit swifter in its flightThan a beam shot through the depth of night,
Rejoined the body sleeping in this tomb;
Life thus infused,—upon his sight
Burst the clear translucent light
That, quenchless, blazed within this room.
Proudly he gazed around;—
And through the dark profound
Ascended to his ancient halls:—
No foot had in his absence dared to tread
The mansion of the mighty dead;
But, dome, and column, arch and walls,
Were just as when his spirit fled!”
