to crush this heart ? AXEL. 33 In empty space my voice is lost Like some lone widow's churchyard sigh, Like some fond dove that mourns on high, Whose plaints upon the wind are toss'd. He answers not ! he cannot hear ! Forests and billows bar the way ; What if I follow him ? yet, nay ; Such deed a woman may not dare. A woman, yes ! yet still I can Assume the sword and seem a man. Well do I know the steed to tame, Firm is my seat, and sure my aim. From danger oft I've scorn'd to fly, When life or... death was on the die. Sure the suggestion was divine ; Now Axel, Axel, thou art mine ! I'll seek thee in thy northern home ; For thee, for thee, the world I'll roam ! And war shall bear me on its wing, Till from thy lips thine oath I wring. 34 AXEL. XVIII. No pause she knew ; so said, so done ; With woman thought and act are one. About her locks of raven hue The soldier's simple hat she threw ; The buff-coat veil'd her bosom's pride, A crooked sabre graced her side ; With sulphury stores her pouch was lined, The deadly carbine hung behind ; A belt around her waist she wore, Like cestus famed in Grecian lore ; Her lips a feign 'd moustache encloses, Like mourning-crape around two roses.
