Text Appearing Before Image:
Still drooled for blood, nor ever got her fill, Though charnels heaped, and reeking shamblesthronged ? One thing redeems her, gems her with a crownSo radiant, all her crimes are as a speck; Wrhen all her Tuscan sisters, town by town,Like shackled slaves, lay grovelling at the beckOf Pope and Spain, she would not bend the neck; Free to the last, till Freedoms star went down. RAVENNA Between the Po, the sea, and the Apennine,There lies a land beshrouded in the pallOf fogs implacable, where fevers crawl Like slinking ghosts among its tragic pine; Here Rome, the hoary She-wolf, once divine,But toothless grown, last bayed her battle call,Last crouched to spring, her last great kill of all, Upon the unnumbered hordes of Gothic swine, And died the death worth chanting.

I am not one to bandy words with Fate; What is must be, whatever Man design.Stand thou and triumph at the Doomful Gate, Hold fast the future; but the past is mine,Old Death! nor canst thou make one desolate On whom such friendship once has come to shine. 93 AZRAEL Lift up your heads, ye everlasting Gates! For on the threshold, where your portals throwTheir shadows big with mysteries and woe, The Archangel Azrael in silence waits Admission to his realm. No diadem freightsThe brows august, no sword of living fireLeaps in his hand, no robes of Kings attire Bespeak the imperial Herald of the Fates! Upon his straigh
