Tyrant, shall avail To save thy secret soul from nightly fears, From Cambria's curse, from Cambria's tedrs ! ' Such were the sounds, that o'er the crested pride Of the first Edward soatter'd wild dismay, 10 As down the steep of Snowdon's shaggy side He wound with toilsome march his long array. Stout Glo'ster stood aghast in speechless trance : To arms ! cried Mortimer, and couch'd his quiv'ring lance. I 2 On a rock, whose haughty brow Frowns o'er old Conway's foaming flood. Robed in the sable g...arb of woe. With haggard eyes the Poet stood ; THE BARB 245 (Loose his beard, and hoary hair Stream'd, like a meteor, to the troubled air) 20 And with a Master's hand, and Prophet's fire, Struck the deep sorrows of his lyre. ' Hark, how each giant-oak, and desert cave, Sighs to the torrent's aweful voice beneath ! O'er thee, oh King ! their hundred arms they wave, Revenge on thee in hoarser murmurs breath ; Vocal no more, since Cambria's fatal day, To high-born Hoel's harp, or soft Llewellyn's lay.
