For eastern Greenland ; till, ensnared by fate. In toils that mock'd their utmost strength and skill, They felt, as by a charm, their ship stand still ; The madness of the wildest gale that blows, Were mercy to that shudder of repose, , i, - When withering horror struck from heart to heart The blunt rebound of Death's benumbing dart. CANTO V. GREENLAND. 119 And each, a petrifaction at his post, Look'd on yon father, and gave up the ghost ', {e) He meekly kneeling, with his hands upraised, His b...eard of driven snow, eyes fix'd and glazed, Alone among the dead shall yet survive, — The' imperishable dead that seem alive ; — The' immortal dead, whose spirits, breaking free, Bore his last words into eternity.
