Herodias (the heir of Herod's crimes, Who slew the babes about where Christ was born) Married two uncles, living at the times; She doth the noble palace now adorn (?). The royal palms arise in regal pride, And grace the citadel, serene and grand; While valiant sentinels on every side. Like mail-clad statues, stand in stern command. Beneath the sheltering palm trees' bending shades, The palace and the prison both appear. Whence, blended with the click of warriors' blades, Comes mingling music on... the coming ear. The palace enter— planned with art to please — It hath the courtiers used to halls of kings, iVnd the queen's daughter dances with such ease, Her airy icalzen seems like angel's wings. 'Tis Herod's birthday! — he to rashness bred; And soon we hear his voice in solemn vow; And — must we! — see, the holy martyr's head Is handed to the nameless danseuse now! The monstrous Mother holds the martyr's head. Till, like a fiend she said: '■''My foe is dead!"' 46 ECHOES OF INSPIRED AGES.
