Myself I execrate and not the cup, Though grief effeminate at times starts up, And whines and gnashes at the odious snare. Still all excuse is empty, vain as air. Vainly my counsel, filled with eloquence, Harangu'd the solemn twelve in my defence, I'd heard enough I wish'd that all was o'er, My life was ready, law could do no more, Within the judge's cool collected eye, I read my doom ! I felt condemned to die, And reason, conscience, whisper'd " It is just, Thy life for hers, whom thou hast vi...lely thrust THE TRIAL. 37 Into eternity. " The counsel's loud harangue Fell on my ears unheeded, for there rang A loud alarum in my tortured mind Of starving children I should leave behind ; I would have given worlds to weep, to moan, My wretched fate, my wife's, and their's alone. The counsel ceas'd, a murmur of applause Announced his task was o'er ! amidst the pause, The judge with true forensic acumen summ'd up The damning evidence and fill'd my cup To over-flowing with the loathsome tale O'er which I prayed for death to draw the veil !
