And near the beat of the alarming drum Roused up the soldier ere the morning star ; While thronged the citizens with terror dumb, Or whispering with white lips — " The foe ! They come ! They come ! " Last noon beheld them full of lusty life, Last eve in Beauty's circle proudly gay. The midnight brought the signal-sound of strife, The morn the marshalling in arm, — the day Battle's magnificently stem array ! NAPOLEON'S FINAL RETURN. Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Abridged. Napoleon ! he hath come a...gain — borne home Upon the popular ebbing heart, — a sea Which gathers its own wrecks perpetually, Majestically moaning. Give him room ! — Room for the dead in Paris ! welcome, solemn And grave deep, 'neath the cannon-moulded column ! There, weapon spent and warrior spent may rest From roar of fields, provided Jupiter Dare trust Saturnus to lie down so near His bolts! — And this he may : For, dispossessed Of any godship, lies the god-like arm — The goat, Jove sucked, as likely to do harm.
