Given by him that best had proved thee,
To the dungeon and the band;
From the land of flowers and rain,
Borne to Egypt's dewless plain,
Leaving tent and pastoral dell,

And the sire that loved thee well,
And the airs on upland breezy,
Where the scented cedars grow,
For the servant's toil uneasy,
And the captive's weary woe."

"HEARKEN, thou craggy ocean pyramid !

Give answer from thy voice, the sea-fowl screams,
When were thy thunders mantled in huge streams?
When from the sun was thy broad forehead hid ?
How long is't since the Mighty Power bid
Thee heave to airy sleep from fathom dreams?
Sleep on the lap of thunder or sunbeams;

Or when grey clouds are thy cold coverlid,
Thou answer'st not, for thou art dead asleep,
Thy life is but two dread eternities;

The last in air, the former in the deep,

First with the whale, last with the eagle skies."

"WHAT is thy name? a traveller cried,

As he the old man met.

'Tis the first; thus the seer replied.
Canst thou my form forget?
No pilgrim on Life's rugged road
Can fail to feel my wrath;
On every back I lay a load —

Strew thorns in every path!

Yet here's the second, a gentle maid, That follows with her wiles;

She dares my kingdom to invade,

And turns my tears to smiles.
The load that bows each pilgrim back,
She lightens with her wand,

And if earth's sky is hung with black,
She shows a heaven beyond."
