But hark ! again the robber's horn Summons the Castle to submit : [n vain the sun shall gild the morn, Ere proud Count Vasco deign' to quit.
No bolt is drawn — no voice replies ; All idly sweeps the useless blast — Booming along the midnight skies, It dies among the hills at last.
A moment at the Castle gate, Impatient stands the robber-chief; But quick must be the work of fate — The counsel short — the orders brief.
" Comrades ! our summons is defied — What will not bend we well can break : To...-night our sabres must be dyed — Down with the gate for Vasco's sake !" Axes and hammers — stroke on stroke — Upon the massy postern dash ; And whirling from the splinter'd oak, Beneath the moon the fragments flash.
THE FAITHFUL SERVANT. 297 It creaks — it bends — it bursts in twain ; And on they rush — the pass is free ; But some shall ne'er return again To celebrate their victory.
Now onward — onward for the prize — The happy guard must slumber well; And now if they should chance to rise, They may forget their tale to tell.
