— my spe}l is spoken. Where corpse-light Dances bright, Be it by day or night. Be it by light or dark. There shall corpse lie stiff and stark. -- 1 FROM THE PIRATE. 261 Menseful maiden ne'er should rise, Till the first beam tinge the skies ; Silk-fringed eyelids still should close, Till the sun has kiss*d the rose ; Maiden's foot we should not view, Mark'd with tiny print on dew, Till the opening flowerets spread Carpet meet for beauty's tread. Oiap. xxiii. (10.) NORNA'S INCANTATIONS. Champion,... famed for wariike toil, Art thou silent, Ribolt Troil ? Sand, and dust, and pebbly stones, Are leaving bare thy giant bones. Who dared touch the wild bear's skin Ye slumber'd on, while life was in ? — A woman now, or babe, may come And cast the covering from thy tomb. Yet be not wrathful. Chief, nor blight Mine eyes or ears with sound or sight ! I come not with unhallow'd tread, To wake the slumbers of the dead. Or lay thy giant relics bare ; But what I seek thou well canst spare. Be it to my hand allow'd To shear a merk's weight from thy shroud ; Yet leave thee sheeted lead enough To shield thy bones from weather rough.
