Delora!
"Lo! I, the man who smote thy gates, Still live — Andrea Como waits! Not twice ten years of wrongs and pains Have wrought my fall: Shame eat thy chains, As dust that fell from me! And now We two grey men must titles show ! Hark! — retribution! — I, or thou!" Delora !
Aghast, he reel'd; yet feigning proud, With wavering accent cried aloud, — " I stole her not — poor wretch, forbear!" I seized the poor wretch by the hair, And to a torrent's dizzy verge, With many a gasp and wrench did urg...e, And held him o'er the boiling surge! Delora !
N 178 THE BALLAD OF DELORA.
" Thou worm at Nature's footstool! — thou Unworthy shape of man! — what blow Can quit my wrongs?" — I loosed his form, And shook the grey hairs from my palm: " Though through the cataract's raging crown My hand could swing thee howling down, Go — pardon'd by the wood-born clown !" Delora !
Yes, my deep injuries, sustain'd From youth to age — life wasted, waned — Mortal revenge could never quit: Poor — temporal — inadequate.
