Strona 47 - Flow'd with the stream ; — all down his cold white side The crimson torrent ran, dim now and soil'd...
Strona 38 - And he desired to draw forth the steel, And let the blood flow free, and so to die — But first he would convince his stubborn foe ; And, rising sternly on one arm, he said : — * Man, who art thou who dost deny my words ?
