Return again and slay, nor tire.
We crave thy slogan voice of might That filled the strand with echoes dire.

THEODORE DE BANVILLE 27 Thy laurel boughs their sap expire, The iron to their soul doth bite. — Then haste thee, haste, our god and sire, And heal thy children with thy sight !
And shelter him, th
...e lonely wight, Whom Thought her martyr rapt hath made, Smitten with winter black as night — Where art thou, great Alcaeus' shade ?

28 THE BALLADES OF XII BALLADE OF THE ISLE OF VENUS Her garden harried by the ruffian wind, Cythera lies, lorn of her lovely state, Her beauty to a barren reef declined Her glory gone, her pleasaunce desolate Lashed by the sun with flame inveterate ; Yet seek we, friends, across the fairy main, The land whose love in all our hearts doth reign, The land whose utter beauty shall beguile All them that win her of their care and pain — Up sail, and over to the Magic Isle !
