I was a stricken deer, that left the herd
Leno since. With many an arrow deep infir'd
My panting side was charged when I withdrew
Te seek a tranquil death in distant shades.
There was I found by one who had himself
Been hurt by th'archers. In his side he hore.
And in his hands and teet, the cruel scars.

BY

WILLIAM COWPER,

OF THE INNER TEMPLE, ESQ.

Sicut aquæ tremulum labris ubi lumen ahenis
Sole repercussum, ant radiantis imagine luna,
Omnia pervolitat late loca, jamque sub auras
Erigitur, summique ferit laquearia tecti.

Virg. Æn. viii.

So water, trembling in a polish'd vase,
Reflects the beam that plays upon its face;
The sportive light, uncertain where it falls,
Now strikes the roof, now flashes on the walls.
