When kings are sick obedience sickens too.
Some tidings of grave import, good or bad, To make or mar this banquet that we hold.
32 The House of Omri.
Are on their way toward our battlements ; But which in truth I know not nor can guess : Disaster rides with looser rein, and what Should Victory do hither ?
Ahaziah.
Hath my lord Heard aught of late from Gilead, how they fare ?
Jehoram.
'Tis now three days and all things there were well .: The breach we made was strengthened, and the foe, Albeit g...rudgingly, were falling back ; Their trumpets echoed faintlier day by day.
And night by night their watch-fires further shone.
Watchman.
The messenger, my lord, comes not again : And up and down between their ranks I see One driving hke to Jehu, Nimshi's son, Who furiously driveth.
Jezebel.
Even so : Aye doth the people's favourite o'ertask The King's regard. There is no person else But only Nimshi's too-much honoured child Dare pick and choose among thy strait com- mands.
The Sons of Ahab. 3; He hath some eager history of war, Some tale of doubtful stratagem or fight, That told by other tongue might lack its meed ; And therefore hath he kept thy messenger : My lord doth ill to grant him so much grace.
